The Trail Went Cold - Episode 283 - Gordon Page Jr. & Kristi Krebs
Wednesday Jun 29, 2022
Wednesday Jun 29, 2022
May 26, 1991. Grand Rapids, Michigan. 28-year old Gordon Page Jr. is discovered to be missing from his room at the Cascade Foster Care Home, a residential treatment centre for individuals with autism. Since a man matching Gordon’s description is seen hitchhiking on a nearby interstate, it is theorized that he escaped from the home in order to travel to Florida to see his family. There are additional reported eyewitness sightings of Gordon and a baseball card collection which is believed to belong to him is found underneath an overpass in the weeks following his disappearance, but he continues to remain a missing person.
August 10, 1993. Mendocino County, California. 22-year old Kristi Krebs leaves her job at a pizza parlour, but never returns home and her abandoned car is found stuck in some mud in a remote wooded area the following day. The scene mirrors an incident from three years earlier where a car Kristi was driving caught fire in another wooded area and she suffered a psychotic trauma-related breakdown which caused her to temporarily lose her memory. Since there are multiple reports of a disoriented-looking woman matching Kristi’s description hitchhiking throughout the country, there is fear that she suffered another breakdown and completely forgot who she was, but Kristi is never found.
On this week’s episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we explore a pair of missing persons cases which were featured on “Unsolved Mysteries” and are still without a resolution three decades later.
If you have any information about the disappearance of Gordon Page Jr., please contact the Kent County Sheriff’s Office at (616) 632-6100. If you have any information on the disappearance of Kristi Krebs, please contact the Fort Bragg Police Department at (707) 961-2800.

The Trail Went Cold - Episode 282 - Mark Himebaugh
Wednesday Jun 22, 2022
Wednesday Jun 22, 2022
November 25, 1991. Middle Township, New Jersey. 11-year old Mark Himebaugh leaves his residence in order to watch firefighters extinguishing a brush fire, but he never returns home. A search turns up Mark’s left shoe on a nearby beach and while eyewitnesses place Mark in the company of multiple unidentified individuals on the afternoon he went missing, he cannot be found. Over one year later, a witness tells police that a sex offender named Thomas Butcavage screened a video of himself sexually assaulting Mark before confessing to his murder, but the alleged videotape is never found and no evidence links him to Mark’s disappearance. On this week’s episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we explore one of the more disturbing missing children’s cases we’ve covered. Special thanks to listener Juile Heiland for narrating the opening of this episode.
If you have any information about this case, please contact the Middle Township Police Department at (609) 465-8700.

The Trail Went Cold - Episode 281 - Byron Carr
Wednesday Jun 15, 2022
Wednesday Jun 15, 2022
November 12, 1988. Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island. After he is not heard from in over 24 hours, the body of 36-year old Byron Carr is discovered inside the bedroom of his residence. He has been strangled with a towel and stabbed with a kitchen knife and the words, “I will kill again”, are scrawled on the bedroom wall. The evidence indicates that Byron had sex with another man before he was murdered, but even though the perpetrator left his DNA behind, all attempts to match it to anyone are unsuccessful. Over the years, investigators receive a number of compelling tips, including the name of an accomplice who supposedly helped the killer cover up the crime, but the killer himself remains unidentified. On this week’s episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we will travel back to our podcast’s home country of Canada to explore the only known unsolved homicide from Prince Edward Island.
If you have any information about this case, please contact the Charlottetown Police Service at (902) 629-4172 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).

The Trail Went Cold - Episode 280 - Peter Watts
Wednesday Jun 08, 2022
Wednesday Jun 08, 2022
January 18, 1976. Colwyn Bay, Wales. The family of 15-year old Peter Watts returns to their residence and discovers he has left behind a note to say that he went to see a friend. Ten hours later, Peter’s unconscious body is discovered on the Euston Road underpass in London over 250 miles away and he dies after being rushed to the hospital. While Peter’s injuries are consistent with a fall from a great height, his body and clothing appear to have been washed, suggesting that he was seriously injured at another location before someone placed his body on the underpass. While an inquest jury rules that Peter’s death was murder, there are no conclusive answers about who killed him or why he made a lengthy trip to London to begin with. On this week’s episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we explore a truly baffling mystery from the United Kingdom about a victim who wound up dead at a location they had no known connection to.

The Trail Went Cold - Episode 279 - Colonel Philip Shue
Wednesday Jun 01, 2022
Wednesday Jun 01, 2022
April 16, 2003. Kendall County, Texas. 54-year old Colonel Philip Shue, who works as a staff psychiatrist for the United States Air Force, leaves his residence to drive to work. Two-and-a-half hours later, Colonel Shue’s car is seen driving erratically down the interstate before it crashes into some trees and Shue is found dead in the driver’s seat. Even though his death is ruled to be a staged suicide, there are a number of suspicious discrepancies, as duct tape is wrapped around Shue’s wrists and feet, a large gash is carved into his chest, and both of his nipples have been removed. There is suspicion that Shue’s ex-wife had him tortured and killed in order to cash in on some life insurance policies, but even though a judge later makes a public ruling at a civil trial that Shue was the victim of a homicide, his official cause of death is never changed. Did Colonel Shue intentionally crash his car and take his own life, or did was killed while attempting to escape from someone who did him harm? We’re going to explore both sides of this perplexing case on this week’s episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, which chronicles one of the most bizarre unexplained deaths you’ll ever hear about.

Seven-year old Alexis Patterson is walked to school by her stepfather, who claims that he last sees her crossing the street and heading in the direction of the school playground.

Over the years, investigators explore a number of potential leads and direct some suspicion towards Alexis’ family, but there are no conclusive answers about what happened to her.

The Trail Went Cold - Episode 277 - Wil Hendrick
Wednesday May 18, 2022
Wednesday May 18, 2022
January 10, 1999. Moscow, Idaho. While attending a party at an apartment complex, 25-year old University of Idaho theatre student Wil Hendrick vanishes without explanation and his abandoned car is soon discovered downtown. Three-and-a-half years later, Wil’s skull and jawbone are found in a rural wooded area and even though his exact cause of death cannot be determined, he is ruled to be the victim of a homicide. Since Wil was gay, it is speculated that his murder might have been a hate crime. While investigators explore a number of different angles, including the involvement of a truck driver who had once worked for Wil’s partner, no conclusive answers are ever found. On this week’s episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we explore the perplexing unsolved death of a beloved stage actor.

Wednesday May 11, 2022
December 17, 1993. Merced, California. 27-year old Paul Armstrong, a tow truck operator employed by RTS Towing, vanishes without explanation from his home. Later that day, 34-year old Steven Lombard, another tow truck operator from the same company, goes to the towing yard to pick up his paycheque before he also disappears and his abandoned pick-up truck is found in a K-Mart parking lot the following morning. Over 15 years later, the owner of RTS Towing, Randal Wright, becomes a person of interest in the disappearance of his 50-year old estranged wife, Karen Wright, who vanishes from their vacation home in Mexico. While there is suspicion that Randal might have been involved in all of these disappearances, no trace of any of the victims is ever found. On this week’s episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we will be covering a trio of unsolved missing persons cases and explore whether or not they are actually connected to each other. After that… the trail went cold.

The Trail Went Cold - Episode 275 - Leonard Dirickson
Wednesday May 04, 2022
Wednesday May 04, 2022
March 14, 1998. Roger Mills County, Oklahoma. 39-year old Leonard Dirickson prepares breakfast for his son, Jared, before a man driving a pick-up truck shows up at their ranch. After Leonard goes outside and speaks to the driver, he tells Jared that the man is interested in looking at one of his stud horses and he will accompany him to the locations where they are being kept. After Leonard climbs into the pick-up truck and leaves, he does not return and is eventually reported missing. Even though there are a couple of reported sightings to suggest that Leonard might still be alive, he cannot be found and the driver of the pick-up truck is never identified. Could Leonard Dirickson have staged his own disappearance or did he become the victim of foul play? And if he was murdered, what could the motive have been? On this week’s episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we explore a truly perplexing missing persons case and we’ll also take some time to briefly examine the unsolved disappearance of 56-year old Lee Young, who vanished from Scottsdale, Arizona in May 1990.
If you have any information on the disappearance of Leonard Dirickson, please contact the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation at 1-800-522-8017. If you have any information on the disappearance of Lee Young, please contact the Scottsdale Police Department at (480) 312-5155.

The Trail Went Cold - Episode 274 - Cary Sayegh

October 25, 1978. Las Vegas, Nevada. Six-year old Cary Sayegh disappears from his schoolyard during lunchtime recess and a student reports seeing Cary being forced into a vehicle by a man. Hours later, the Sayegh family receives a phone call from a kidnapper demanding a sizable ransom for Cary’s safe return, but the caller never makes contact with them again. A man named Jerry Burgess draws suspicion from the authorities when he keeps inserting himself into the investigation and he is eventually charged with Cary’s kidnapping in 1981. However, Burgess winds up being acquitted of the kidnapping charge at his trial and all attempts to find Cary are unsuccessful. On this week’s episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we chronicle the frustrating story of an unsolved ransom kidnapping which would become one of the infamous cold cases in the history of Las Vegas.
If you have any information about this case, please contact the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department at (702) 795-3111.
