Two polygraphs. Two promises of truth. But when the tests ended, the real deception began. One passed. One failed.

This isn’t about who fooled the machine. It’s about who kept lying after the mask fell off. And this time, the cracks are too big to ignore.

In this episode of Hide and Seek, James delves deeper into the tangled narratives surrounding Shane Barton’s disappearance by revisiting key interviews and analyzing conflicting recollections. James’s investigation takes him to the Barton property, where Rachael Barton retraces her actions on the day Shane vanished. Yet, her timeline is riddled with inconsistencies — from phone usage to the supposed last sighting of Shane in the fifth wheel. James also interviews Shane’s son, Danner Barton, whose stoic demeanor and strained relationship with his mother add new layers to the case. Danner’s perspective on the events of March 9th raises questions about family dynamics, while his insight into the family’s access to Wi-Fi adds another piece to the puzzle. Additionally, conversations with Shane’s daughter, Hayden Barton, reveal a shift from openness to silence, leaving more questions than answers. Further complicating the narrative are insights from Howard Wheeler and John Bean, who expose past financial disputes and character tensions that may be key to understanding Shane’s disappearance. As James pieces together these interviews, the contradictions and evasions make it increasingly difficult to discern the truth. Is the family’s fractured story concealing a deeper reality, or are these inconsistencies just noise in an already complex case? --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/james-baysinger/support
