Summary

31-year-old Blair Adam's death in July of 1996 is as mysterious as a case can get. It has baffled investigators and fueled speculation by online sleuths for years. Much of this has to do with Blair's erratic behavior during the time before his death. He had mentioned to a number of people that he was afraid of something or someone. His movements from his home in Surrey, British Columbia, Canada to Knoxville, Tennessee, where his body was found, are perplexing. Join Mike and Morf as they discuss the case of the mysterious death of Blair Adams. He tried several times, unsuccessfully, to cross the border into the U.S. He purchased an expensive ticket to Germany that he never used. Instead, he took his money and valuables and flew to Washington D.C. From there, he made his way to Knoxville, TN where his body was found by a construction crew. So many years later, the same nagging questions remain. Why did Blair Adams take the actions he did that led him to Knoxville? And, was he murdered by someone that had followed him or was he killed by someone he met in Knoxville? Or, was he a victim of some type of accident that led to his death?
