Summary

Brittanee Drexel was 17 years old in 2009 when she left her home in Rochester, NY to go on a spring break trip to Myrtle Beach, SC. Her mother had forbade her to go, but in a decision that would alter the course of her life, she went anyway.

Brittanee’s eerie last movements in Myrtle Beach were caught on CCTV. She had been texting with her boyfriend back home and was telling him that she was having a miserable time. She was looking forward to getting back to New York. All of a sudden, Brittanee stopped texting and was never heard from again.

The search for Brittanee spanned over 13 years. Her mother even moved to Myrtle Beach to be able to keep up the search for her.

Brittanee’s case is one that involved many false leads and false information, putting detectives on the wrong track for years.

In May 2022, just when the case seemed to be totally cold, there was an unexpected break. Brittanee’s remains were found after sex offender Raymond Moody confessed to murdering her back in 2009.

In this episode we discuss the abduction and murder of Brittanee Drexel.

0:28.8	It is Thursday, May 16th. No, it's not. May 27th, May 26th.
0:35.2	I'm literally looking at it. All right, it's Thursday, May 26th. Like, I'm already messing up and we're just starting.
0:44.8	But like, see, I like to think you don't mess up as much as me because it's like the morning for you.
0:50.2	So you're like fresh. And it's like the end of the day for me. So I'm just like, my brain is fried.
0:56.1	I feel less fresh this morning because I woke up super early. Couldn't get back to sleep. So I feel like I've been awake for the whole day already.
1:04.2	All right. Well, anyways, it's weather up there. It's kind of cloudy today. It's a little less hot. Not really any exciting weather here though.
1:13.6	Yeah, that's actually been sunny here. It is cold, but in kind of on the weather chat, Elmo, the kid knows still around.
1:20.4	I thought he may be gone for the winter by now, but I saw him yesterday. Probably still a little bit early for me to see him today,
1:26.4	but he still seems to be around. So hopefully we'll get a little bit longer. I don't know. Maybe he won't ever hibernate.
1:32.6	I don't know. According to Google, it tells me he will, but who knows? Maybe I won't get cold enough there.
1:38.0	Yeah, I don't know. And it like it is quite warm in the sun here during the day. Like it still gets to 20 or sometimes even,
1:44.6	you know, higher Celsius, which I don't know what the equivalent is, probably 70 maybe. Yeah.
1:50.3	So it still gets warmish in the day. So anyway, hopefully he'll stick around for a little bit longer.
1:55.2	We'll have to give weekly updates so that we know the status of the friendship.
2:00.0	Because he's, we've seen less now because there is less sun. So I'm assuming he's out in kind of public less.
2:06.6	But when we do seem, it's like, there he is, there he is. It's really exciting. Look at celebrity taking pictures.
2:11.7	Where's Wally? Where's Omar? They haven't gotten sick of each other yet.
2:15.8	No, she's probably a little bit less enthusiastic. Now she realizes he won't play back with her,
