This podcast is intended for mature audiences.

Listener discretion is advised. Bad Land. There's a house here in Walton County that came up associated with the cartel living there.

And I'm not sure how I got the location of the house.

I think I came up with this location from another case

because you'll hear rumbling.

That was a home invasion, you know, or the drug guys were

sitting on a house because they heard it was a stash house. That is fairly common out here.

They've not really hit anything big yet, but they're out here. They've not really hit anything big yet, but they're out here.

That's investigator Mike Rising. After months of us talking, he finally opens up about

what is likely the darkest theory yet surrounding Justin's case.

About maybe a year ago, our guys were either chasing somebody or someone called in with a complaint.

Oh, it was a report of a shooting, a suicide at this house.

So the sheriff's office goes out there.

They were there for a party. This one guy had walked away from the party and there were several buildings there and had gone out behind the building and shot himself in the head.

So it gets worked, well then it starts, these names start

getting checked and like, uh-oh, these guys are with people, okay, like Mexican

mafia. And then the stories aren't kind of making sense so there's some

suspicion the guy might not have committed suicide other than by ripping some

but the wrong person off and being killed so So this is a this is definitely an

organized group out there but this house comes up in the Justin Gaines case

as far as the owners of the property and that as having been connected with the

players in the Justin Gaines case. You're going to be. From Wave Land, I'm Sean Kite, and this is Drowning Creek.
