Music Thanks for listening to Last Seen Alive.

I'm your host, Leah, crime analyst by day, and true crime storyteller by night.

And as always, I'm your co-host, Scott.

This is the revisited and enhanced edition of one of our early episodes, which features the

unsolved disappearance of Paula Delmundo. The original edition was recorded in 2021, and we've
