00:00:02.120 --> 00:00:08.199
Hello friends, today bringing you part three of our Unbelievably
2
00:00:08.359 --> 00:00:13.000
Bizarre and Creepy Disappearances series. These are some of the
3
00:00:13.080 --> 00:00:17.280
strangest disappearances we've come across in all our research, and
4
00:00:17.440 --> 00:00:23.120
let's begin number five. Chance Engelbert, twenty five year old
5
00:00:23.199 --> 00:00:26.199
Chance Engelbert, was last seen leaving the seven hundred block
6
00:00:26.239 --> 00:00:29.879
of O Street in Garret, Nebraska, at around seven thirty
7
00:00:29.879 --> 00:00:35.640
pm on Saturday, July sixth, twenty nineteen. Chance, his wife Bailey,
8
00:00:35.799 --> 00:00:38.759
and their son Banks, who lived in Wyoming, had spent
9
00:00:38.799 --> 00:00:42.320
the sunny Saturday visiting Bailey's family, with articles reporting that
10
00:00:42.359 --> 00:00:46.119
they spent today golfing. Chance had recently accepted a new
11
00:00:46.200 --> 00:00:48.840
job with a propane company after he had recently been
12
00:00:48.920 --> 00:00:52.200
laid off from his previous job at a coal mine.
13
00:00:52.520 --> 00:00:56.159
Bailey's family didn't seem to like this job move. Chance,
14
00:00:56.439 --> 00:00:58.759
his father in law, and other members of Bailey's family
15
00:00:58.840 --> 00:01:02.799
all began arguing. Bailey drove over to pick Chance up
16
00:01:02.840 --> 00:01:06.280
before heading to her grandparents' house to collect a few things.
17
00:01:06.840 --> 00:01:09.959
During the car ride, Chance became upset again and asked
18
00:01:10.000 --> 00:01:12.200
Bailey to drive him home, to which she said no.
19
00:01:13.680 --> 00:01:15.719
Chance then called up one of his friends for a
20
00:01:15.799 --> 00:01:20.280
ride home. Sadly, for Chance, the friend wasn't able to help,
21
00:01:20.319 --> 00:01:23.239
so Chance left the seven hundred block of O Street
22
00:01:23.519 --> 00:01:28.719
and began to walk towards Torrington, Wyoming. According to Google Maps,
23
00:01:29.280 --> 00:01:31.599
if Chance was planning to walk the whole way, it
24
00:01:31.680 --> 00:01:34.000
would have taken him close to twelve hours on foot.
25
00:01:34.920 --> 00:01:36.560
There were two routes he could have taken if he
26
00:01:36.599 --> 00:01:38.920
was in a car, both ending up on the US
27
00:01:39.000 --> 00:01:43.680
twenty six W and taking around forty three minutes. Bailey
28
00:01:43.760 --> 00:01:46.280
told investigators that she last spoke to Chance on the
29
00:01:46.319 --> 00:01:49.359
phone at seven forty six pm, and he told her
30
00:01:49.400 --> 00:01:53.799
that he was walking south, whereas friends told investigators that
31
00:01:53.840 --> 00:01:56.280
they had spoken to Chance around the same time and
32
00:01:56.359 --> 00:01:59.640
he told him he was headed north towards Torrington, Wyoming.
33
00:02:00.840 --> 00:02:03.519
At nine oh eight pm, Chance's phone sent a final
34
00:02:03.599 --> 00:02:05.879
text that was just a string of emojis and numbers.
35
00:02:06.760 --> 00:02:10.240
Chance's mother, Dawn, said that Chance never used emojis and
36
00:02:10.319 --> 00:02:14.439
speculates that the text was sent by someone else. At
37
00:02:14.520 --> 00:02:17.680
nine pm that evening, a large thunderstorm rolled through the area,
38
00:02:17.840 --> 00:02:20.400
and Bailey and her family assumed that Chance had found
39
00:02:20.400 --> 00:02:23.240
shelter somewhere and would be in contact with him soon.
40
00:02:24.599 --> 00:02:27.599
Bailey's grandfather went out looking for Chance, but found no
41
00:02:27.639 --> 00:02:32.080
sign of the man. Bailey told a NBC news I
42
00:02:32.120 --> 00:02:35.000
still wasn't that worried. I figured he comes linking in
43
00:02:35.120 --> 00:02:38.639
late that night, but he didn't. And when I woke
44
00:02:38.719 --> 00:02:41.319
up the next morning and he wasn't there, I knew
45
00:02:41.400 --> 00:02:45.840
it was bad. Chance friends and family tried desperately to
46
00:02:45.879 --> 00:02:48.159
contact him, but his phone had been turned off shortly
47
00:02:48.199 --> 00:02:50.400
after nine oh eight pm when he had sent the
48
00:02:50.439 --> 00:02:55.719
cryptic text message. Realizing that something was wrong, Chance's family
49
00:02:55.840 --> 00:02:59.800
called the police and officially reported him missing. Investigators just
50
00:02:59.800 --> 00:03:02.400
got that Chance's phone had last pinged off a tower
51
00:03:02.400 --> 00:03:07.560
on County Road nineteen near Scott's Bluff, Nebraska. They also
52
00:03:07.639 --> 00:03:11.199
found the CCTV footage showing Chance walking alone along the
53
00:03:11.240 --> 00:03:16.000
intersection of Terry Boulevard and Stable Club Road. After this sighting,
54
00:03:16.360 --> 00:03:21.400
he mysteriously vanished. Once Chance had been reported missing, the
55
00:03:21.439 --> 00:03:24.159
Gearing Police Department sprung into action and called in the
56
00:03:24.199 --> 00:03:29.000
help of eighteen agencies, including drones, divers, dogs, horseback riders,
57
00:03:29.159 --> 00:03:32.080
and one hundred and forty seven volunteers, who managed to
58
00:03:32.080 --> 00:03:36.360
cover twenty four hundred acres on foot. The Nebraska State
59
00:03:36.400 --> 00:03:39.639
Patrol helicopter team and Airlink managed to cover combined to
60
00:03:39.680 --> 00:03:42.680
three hundred and eighty miles during the search effort, but
61
00:03:42.759 --> 00:03:46.960
no sign of Chance could be found. Authorities were concerned
62
00:03:47.000 --> 00:03:49.080
for his well being as the rains on the evening
63
00:03:49.120 --> 00:03:52.199
the Chance disappeared were described as heavy and cold. In
64
00:03:52.199 --> 00:03:56.240
addition to the dangers of lightning, it was also postulated
65
00:03:56.240 --> 00:03:59.439
that Chance may have fallen into river or stream or
66
00:03:59.520 --> 00:04:03.759
suffered from hypothermia due to the weather conditions. Since that
67
00:04:03.879 --> 00:04:07.199
July day, Chance Ingelbert has never been seen or heard
68
00:04:07.199 --> 00:04:11.439
from again, and his family are desperate for answers. His
69
00:04:11.520 --> 00:04:14.360
mother made a plead a Chance, saying, please call somebody.
70
00:04:14.840 --> 00:04:17.319
You don't have to come home. We just want to
71
00:04:17.319 --> 00:04:21.839
know that you're safe. Our heart aches every day every night.
72
00:04:23.279 --> 00:04:26.399
In the wake of chance disappearance, his mother Dawn created
73
00:04:26.439 --> 00:04:30.120
the Help Find Chase Ingelbert Facebook page that she uses
74
00:04:30.160 --> 00:04:33.480
to keep his case alive, as well as the post updates.
75
00:04:34.199 --> 00:04:37.879
In early November twenty twenty one, and armbone and sure
76
00:04:38.040 --> 00:04:41.279
were found near Malbetta, Nebraska, which is eight and a
77
00:04:41.279 --> 00:04:45.399
half miles south of where Chance was last seen. Has
78
00:04:45.439 --> 00:04:48.079
not yet been confirmed whether these belonged to Chants and
79
00:04:48.160 --> 00:04:52.319
DNA testing is currently underway. In a Facebook post on
80
00:04:52.360 --> 00:04:57.439
November two, twenty twenty one, chance mother Don wrote, We'd
81
00:04:57.439 --> 00:04:59.079
like to take a moment to thank you all for
82
00:04:59.120 --> 00:05:03.040
prayers call some messages. Were aware of the news releases
83
00:05:03.040 --> 00:05:06.040
of remains found in Scott's Bluff County and have talked
84
00:05:06.079 --> 00:05:09.519
with officials. Until the DNA is released, there is not
85
00:05:09.600 --> 00:05:13.600
one hundred percent answer, spends on the lab's workload and
86
00:05:13.639 --> 00:05:16.680
it could take weeks for those answers, So for now,
87
00:05:16.959 --> 00:05:20.240
please govern our family a little extra prayers. Thank you.
88
00:05:21.920 --> 00:05:24.439
Time will tell whether these remains belong to Chase or
89
00:05:24.480 --> 00:05:27.279
where the family will have to keep on fighting for answers.
90
00:05:27.959 --> 00:05:31.240
Twenty five year old Chase Ingelbert was last seen on
91
00:05:31.279 --> 00:05:35.079
the seven hundred block of Oa Street in Gearing, Nebraska.
92
00:05:35.240 --> 00:05:38.839
According to reports, he was either walking southbound or north,
93
00:05:39.240 --> 00:05:43.439
with his final destination being Torrington, Wyoming. He is described
94
00:05:43.439 --> 00:05:45.560
as a white male with brown hair and blue eyes.
95
00:05:45.959 --> 00:05:47.839
He has a scar on his hip and is five

97
00:05:51.560 --> 00:05:54.360
last seen wearing a short sleeve, button down wrangler shirt,

00:06:02.600 --> 00:06:05.319
you have any information, your urge to contact the Gearing

00:06:05.399 --> 00:06:09.639
Police Department on three zero eight four three six five
102
00:06:09.759 --> 00:06:17.560
zero eight eight number four. Sonny Shrami Eighteen year old
103
00:06:17.680 --> 00:06:21.040
Sonny Shramac left her home in Trent, Nebraska on April twentieth,
104
00:06:21.079 --> 00:06:24.519
twenty nineteen, and told her mother, follow Johnson, that she
105
00:06:24.600 --> 00:06:27.000
was going on a road trip with a male acquaintance.
106
00:06:28.079 --> 00:06:31.600
This person was not named in publications. However, a member
107
00:06:31.600 --> 00:06:34.040
of Sonny's family named him as forty two year old
108
00:06:34.040 --> 00:06:38.319
Floyd Clifford Coats, who goes by cliff The nature of
109
00:06:38.360 --> 00:06:43.759
their relationship is currently unknown. Sonny is married, However, the
110
00:06:43.839 --> 00:06:46.560
identity of Sonny's husband has been withheld from the public
111
00:06:46.600 --> 00:06:49.120
and her parents have not discussed this detail at length.
112
00:06:50.120 --> 00:06:53.680
One article notes her parents say she married young, believing
113
00:06:53.680 --> 00:06:56.160
it was a good choice, but went through more growing
114
00:06:56.240 --> 00:06:58.759
and trying to do things right, so it was currently
115
00:06:58.839 --> 00:07:02.680
living with her mother, Paula to sort things out. Paula
116
00:07:02.839 --> 00:07:04.959
watched her daughter get into the two thousand and four
117
00:07:05.120 --> 00:07:09.879
white Ford Explorer with Iowa license plate HGJ three four one,
118
00:07:10.519 --> 00:07:13.160
and then watches her daughter and the unknown man drove away.
119
00:07:14.519 --> 00:07:16.639
Little did Paula know that this would be the last
120
00:07:16.639 --> 00:07:19.240
time she would ever see her daughter, who she described
121
00:07:19.240 --> 00:07:23.519
as bright and artistic. At around one pm on April twentieth,
122
00:07:23.560 --> 00:07:27.000
twenty nineteen, Sonny called her mom Paula, to let her
123
00:07:27.040 --> 00:07:29.000
know that everything was going well and that they were
124
00:07:29.040 --> 00:07:33.000
possibly headed for Omaha, Nebraska. The pair talked, and Sonny
125
00:07:33.000 --> 00:07:36.639
told Paula that she was in Holdridge, Nebraska and that
126
00:07:36.800 --> 00:07:41.480
everything was good. A KSMB local article states that Sonny
127
00:07:41.480 --> 00:07:44.079
had called using a borrowed phone because she left hers
128
00:07:44.079 --> 00:07:47.360
at home before embarking on the trip. On the evening
129
00:07:47.439 --> 00:07:51.600
of April twentieth, twenty nineteen, Paula received a horrific phone call.
130
00:07:52.560 --> 00:07:54.879
On the other end of the line was Cliff Coates,
131
00:07:54.920 --> 00:07:56.839
who said that he had gone into the Prairie Flower
132
00:07:56.920 --> 00:07:59.879
Casino in Carter Lake, Iowa, and then when he stepped
133
00:07:59.879 --> 00:08:04.519
out outside, Sonny was gone. NBC reported that Paula had
134
00:08:04.519 --> 00:08:07.240
written on the GoFundMe page that he said he had
135
00:08:07.240 --> 00:08:11.120
looked for couldn't find her, so he left. He left
136
00:08:11.120 --> 00:08:14.519
the area without Sonny, no call to the police, no nothing.
137
00:08:16.000 --> 00:08:19.399
At one point, his story changed. They stopped at a
138
00:08:19.399 --> 00:08:21.959
gas station in Omaha, and he went in to pay
139
00:08:21.959 --> 00:08:25.240
for the gas. When he returned to the vehicle, Sonny
140
00:08:25.360 --> 00:08:29.639
was gone. On April twenty first, twenty nineteen, when Sonny
141
00:08:29.680 --> 00:08:32.159
had still failed to make contact with her parents, Paula
142
00:08:32.159 --> 00:08:35.799
and Jodie, she was officially reported missing and an investigation
143
00:08:35.960 --> 00:08:40.039
was open. An extensive search in Nebraska and Iowa took place,
144
00:08:40.440 --> 00:08:44.240
but there was no sign of Sonny. Because she was eighteen,
145
00:08:44.440 --> 00:08:46.440
she was too old for an Amber alert, but the
146
00:08:46.440 --> 00:08:49.759
authorities still did the best they could to publicize Sonny's case.
147
00:08:51.120 --> 00:08:53.799
Ours turned to days, and Sonny's family became more and
148
00:08:53.799 --> 00:08:57.519
more desperate as each hour passed. Soon after she was
149
00:08:57.559 --> 00:09:00.960
reported missing, the FBI became involved in some case and
150
00:09:01.039 --> 00:09:04.320
are now asking for anyone with information to please come forward.
151
00:09:05.480 --> 00:09:07.840
Sonny's family are also heavily involved in the search for
152
00:09:07.879 --> 00:09:11.480
their missing loved one. Her cousin Rinny Blom created the
153
00:09:11.639 --> 00:09:15.639
Fine Sunny Shramik Facebook page and regularly hands out flyers
154
00:09:15.639 --> 00:09:20.759
and leaflets across Nebraska. Interestingly enough, Cliff Coates has an
155
00:09:20.759 --> 00:09:24.159
extensive criminal history and this is something that we couldn't
156
00:09:24.159 --> 00:09:27.679
pass up on. Mentioning Heavy dot Com wrote an article
157
00:09:27.679 --> 00:09:29.960
about Sonny's case and managed to dig up all of
158
00:09:30.039 --> 00:09:34.360
Cliff's prior convictions. Turns out that he has a criminal
159
00:09:34.399 --> 00:09:38.639
record in Kansas, Iowa, and Nebraska. In Kansas, he was
160
00:09:38.720 --> 00:09:43.000
charged for drug offenses and attempting to evade police. His
161
00:09:43.000 --> 00:09:46.240
prison record isn't squeaky clean either, having twenty five ride
162
00:09:46.320 --> 00:09:50.919
ups for battery, lying, disrespect of an officer, disobeying orders,
163
00:09:50.960 --> 00:09:55.759
and having sexually explicit material. Lip's criminal history doesn't stop there.
164
00:09:56.480 --> 00:09:59.759
In Nebraska, he was convicted of false imprisonment, distribution of
165
00:09:59.720 --> 00:10:04.360
methad amphetamine, possession of a deadly weapon, carrying a concealed weapon,
166
00:10:05.039 --> 00:10:09.320
assault by a confined person, theft by receiving stolen property,
167
00:10:09.480 --> 00:10:15.240
and possession of marijuana. On June tenth, twenty nineteen, Remy
168
00:10:15.279 --> 00:10:18.919
Blom posted again to the Facebook page Find Sonny Shrimick,
169
00:10:19.600 --> 00:10:22.440
saying I have a little info to share for my aunt.
170
00:10:22.840 --> 00:10:26.720
Here's the update. Coach was arrested recently but was bonded
171
00:10:26.799 --> 00:10:30.799
soon after. I'm hoping that they can learn something anything
172
00:10:30.879 --> 00:10:34.840
from him. At least he was found. I'm sharing this
173
00:10:35.039 --> 00:10:37.440
so y'all are aware, but as far as what happened
174
00:10:37.440 --> 00:10:40.279
prior to this or what he was arrested for that
175
00:10:40.440 --> 00:10:45.320
is not being shared by the family. Investigators haven't publicly
176
00:10:45.399 --> 00:10:48.639
named Cliff as a suspect in Sonny's case, and despite
177
00:10:48.720 --> 00:10:51.919
all these leads and all this information, her case has
178
00:10:51.960 --> 00:10:56.360
sadly gone cold. Sonny's family are desperately seeking answers for
179
00:10:56.440 --> 00:10:59.320
what happened to her. She was in the process of
180
00:10:59.360 --> 00:11:02.360
finishing high school and it's extremely out of character for
181
00:11:02.399 --> 00:11:06.240
her to just have wandered off. Sonny's described as white
182
00:11:06.240 --> 00:11:09.519
female with brown hair and blue eyes. She's five foot
183
00:11:09.559 --> 00:11:12.399
seven inches tall, one hundred and eighty pounds, and has
184
00:11:12.559 --> 00:11:17.080
numerous distinguishing features, which are as follows. Sony has a
185
00:11:17.120 --> 00:11:19.240
tattoo on her left shoulder of a feather with the
186
00:11:19.320 --> 00:11:23.039
letters fl y, a tattoo of a red tribal son
187
00:11:23.080 --> 00:11:26.679
on her right ankle. She also has a rectangular scar
188
00:11:26.759 --> 00:11:29.679
on the back of her right shoulder, a small square
189
00:11:29.720 --> 00:11:32.960
shaped scar in the middle of her upper forehead, scarring
190
00:11:32.960 --> 00:11:36.000
on one of her ankles, and shin scars, some chicken
191
00:11:36.039 --> 00:11:38.879
pox on her face, a scar on her left hand
192
00:11:38.879 --> 00:11:41.600
at the bottom of her thumb and first finger, and
193
00:11:41.639 --> 00:11:45.519
a sworded cuts on her arm. Sonny was last seen
194
00:11:45.559 --> 00:11:49.440
wearing denim shorts and a black vest top, but her mother, Paula,
195
00:11:49.480 --> 00:11:51.879
told investigators that she was carrying a pair of jeans
196
00:11:51.879 --> 00:11:54.799
and a hoodie when she went missing. If you have
197
00:11:54.840 --> 00:11:58.519
any information, you're urge to please contact the FBI's Amaha

202
00:12:18.720 --> 00:12:23.720
Matthew Weaver Junior, twenty one year old Matthew Weaver Junior
203
00:12:23.840 --> 00:12:26.440
was in a transitional period in his life. He had
204
00:12:26.519 --> 00:12:29.360
just moved into his own apartment in Granada Hills, California,
205
00:12:29.480 --> 00:12:32.240
to be closer to his job, and he had recently
206
00:12:32.279 --> 00:12:36.840
broken up with his long term girlfriend. The breakup affected Matthew,
207
00:12:36.960 --> 00:12:38.600
but as he had moved to a new area, he
208
00:12:38.639 --> 00:12:41.120
slowly began building up a new circle of friends and
209
00:12:41.279 --> 00:12:45.639
was back out there partying and hanging out. On August ninth,
210
00:12:45.720 --> 00:12:49.240
twenty eighteen, Matthew spent the day working before going to
211
00:12:49.320 --> 00:12:52.320
hang out with a new female friend that he had made.
212
00:12:52.480 --> 00:12:56.559
According to his father, Matthew Weaver Senior, Matthew Junior appeared
213
00:12:56.600 --> 00:12:58.759
excited at the prospect of hanging out with his new
214
00:12:58.799 --> 00:13:01.559
friend and said that nothing seemed out of the ordinary.
215
00:13:02.639 --> 00:13:05.279
According to NBC, the pair hung out until the early
216
00:13:05.320 --> 00:13:08.480
morning hours of August tenth, with Matthew Junior dropping the
217
00:13:08.480 --> 00:13:12.679
woman off at her place around four thirty am. From there,
218
00:13:13.039 --> 00:13:16.080
Matthew Junior sent a text to his friend saying something
219
00:13:16.240 --> 00:13:19.919
crazy has happened, also adding I want to talk while
220
00:13:19.960 --> 00:13:25.120
I have the chance. Matthew Jr. Also Sent a text
221
00:13:25.120 --> 00:13:28.840
to his ex stepmother Brook. The two remained close friends
222
00:13:28.840 --> 00:13:31.559
even when Matthew Junior's father and she divorced, as she
223
00:13:31.600 --> 00:13:37.919
had raised him from a young age. Brooke claims that
224
00:13:37.960 --> 00:13:40.039
some of the text were jumbled and didn't make much
225
00:13:40.080 --> 00:13:44.279
sense at all. At around eleven thirty am, Matthew Jr.
226
00:13:44.399 --> 00:13:46.200
Then Caused the woman he was hanging out with the
227
00:13:46.320 --> 00:13:49.399
night before, but she doesn't answer because she's at work.
228
00:13:50.440 --> 00:13:52.759
She texts him asking what's wrong and telling him that
229
00:13:52.799 --> 00:13:56.639
she is unable to answer right now. Matthew never replied
230
00:13:56.679 --> 00:13:59.200
to the text from Brook or the unknown woman, and
231
00:13:59.279 --> 00:14:03.279
since then he has mysteriously fallen off the map. Brooke
232
00:14:03.320 --> 00:14:06.000
told NBC that Matthew's phone is still linked to his
233
00:14:06.039 --> 00:14:09.200
ex girlfriend's account, so they were able to retrieve phone
234
00:14:09.240 --> 00:14:13.799
records relatively quickly. These records showed that Matthew Junior's location
235
00:14:13.879 --> 00:14:16.240
at the time of sending those texts was the Lost
236
00:14:16.360 --> 00:14:19.559
Rosa Overlook near Stunt and Saddle Peak Roads in the
237
00:14:19.600 --> 00:14:25.200
Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area. This was later confirmed
238
00:14:25.279 --> 00:14:29.200
when CCTV cameras in the area captured Matthew Junior's BMW
239
00:14:29.320 --> 00:14:33.480
driving along the road to Los Roses Overlook. When Brooke
240
00:14:33.519 --> 00:14:36.799
hadn't received reply from her step son, she began to worry.
241
00:14:37.519 --> 00:14:39.799
She began calling all his friends to see if they
242
00:14:39.799 --> 00:14:42.600
had heard from him, but to her horror, no one had.
243
00:14:43.639 --> 00:14:47.679
Unbeknownst to Brook and Matthew Senior, the California Highway Patrol
244
00:14:47.759 --> 00:14:51.480
discovered Matthew Junior's car abandoned on the Topanga Tower Motorway,
245
00:14:51.919 --> 00:14:56.360
close to the Lost Rosa Overlook. They chased the car's
246
00:14:56.399 --> 00:14:59.399
registration and found that it belonged to Matthew Weaver Junior.
247
00:15:00.519 --> 00:15:02.960
After speaking with his family, they realized that he had
248
00:15:02.960 --> 00:15:07.960
not made contact with him since August eleventh. Subsequently, a
249
00:15:08.000 --> 00:15:11.120
missing person report was filed and Matthew Weaver Junior was
250
00:15:11.200 --> 00:15:15.919
officially listed as a missing person. Multiple searches have been
251
00:15:15.960 --> 00:15:19.759
conducted by multiple agencies, but no trace of Matthew has
252
00:15:19.879 --> 00:15:24.759
ever been found. Brooke told NBC there is no way
253
00:15:24.799 --> 00:15:28.120
that kid just fell off the grid and disappeared. For me,
254
00:15:28.519 --> 00:15:32.720
that's not possible. I'm super close with Matthew. He tells
255
00:15:32.759 --> 00:15:36.039
me everything, He calls me anytime he's in a bind.
256
00:15:36.840 --> 00:15:39.320
He would never let his little siblings sit there and
257
00:15:39.399 --> 00:15:44.240
think he might be dead. Then, in January twenty nineteen,
258
00:15:44.720 --> 00:15:48.279
hikers discovered Matthew Junior's car keys just twenty five meters
259
00:15:48.320 --> 00:15:51.519
from where his car had been discovered. It's unknown where
260
00:15:51.559 --> 00:15:54.200
these keys were overlooked during the initial search, or whether
261
00:15:54.240 --> 00:15:56.720
they had been intentionally placed there at a later date.
262
00:15:58.600 --> 00:16:02.159
While out conducting his own for his son, Matthew Senor
263
00:16:02.320 --> 00:16:04.720
discovered shreds of a white T shirt that he believes
264
00:16:04.720 --> 00:16:07.840
his son was wearing on the day he disappeared. A
265
00:16:07.879 --> 00:16:12.000
red Los Angeles Angels hat was also found, which Matthew
266
00:16:12.039 --> 00:16:17.120
Senior also said belonged to his son. The Los Angeles
267
00:16:17.159 --> 00:16:20.919
Police Department's Missing Persons Unit has since taken over Matthew's case.
268
00:16:21.879 --> 00:16:24.559
Matthew Weaver Jr. Is described as a white meal with
269
00:16:24.639 --> 00:16:27.600
brown hair and brown eyes. He's five foot nine inches
270
00:16:27.639 --> 00:16:31.720
tall and weighs one hundred and sixty five pounds. Matthew
271
00:16:31.799 --> 00:16:34.320
Junior has a tattoo of the name Jeremiah on the
272
00:16:34.399 --> 00:16:38.360
left side of his chest. Some of Matthew Junior's friends
273
00:16:38.399 --> 00:16:40.600
say that he sustained a head injury in the days
274
00:16:40.600 --> 00:16:43.720
before his disappearance, and that he may be concussed or
275
00:16:43.799 --> 00:16:48.720
have other behavior issues arriving from this. Matthew Junior was
276
00:16:48.799 --> 00:16:51.120
last seen wearing a plain black or white T shirt,
277
00:16:52.000 --> 00:16:56.799
black Dicky's pants, red shoes, and a Los Angeles Angels
278
00:16:56.799 --> 00:17:00.639
baseball cap. If you have any information, your urge to
279
00:17:00.679 --> 00:17:04.039
please contact the Los Angeles Police Department's Missing Persons Unit
280
00:17:04.559 --> 00:17:09.119
on two one three nine ninety six one eight zero zero.
281
00:17:09.519 --> 00:17:11.559
If you wish to remain anonymous, you can leave a
282
00:17:11.599 --> 00:17:14.880
tip with the LA Regional Crime Stoppers on one eight
283
00:17:15.000 --> 00:17:24.559
hundred two two two tips number two. Erica Thompson fifty
284
00:17:24.559 --> 00:17:27.319
three year old Erica Thompson had recently broken up from
285
00:17:27.319 --> 00:17:30.279
a two year relationship was now living alone with her
286
00:17:30.319 --> 00:17:35.480
cats in a Brookfield, Illinois home. Erica's sister, Dana, said
287
00:17:35.480 --> 00:17:37.839
that the pair regularly kept in contact with each other,
288
00:17:39.000 --> 00:17:41.480
and then Erica always kept in contact with her family.
289
00:17:42.279 --> 00:17:44.400
So when Erica failed to show up for work on
290
00:17:44.440 --> 00:17:48.079
September twenty six to twenty nineteen, her co workers noted
291
00:17:48.079 --> 00:17:51.880
that it was extremely out of character. Dana recalled that
292
00:17:51.920 --> 00:17:54.319
she had last spoken with her sister via email on
293
00:17:54.400 --> 00:17:59.960
September twenty third, twenty nineteen. Erica was captured on CCTV
294
00:18:00.319 --> 00:18:04.079
on September twenty fifth, twenty nineteen, making a deposit at
295
00:18:04.119 --> 00:18:07.440
a bank. She's not been seen or heard from since.
296
00:18:08.880 --> 00:18:11.680
Days passed, and Erica's family became more and more concerned
297
00:18:11.720 --> 00:18:16.480
when she didn't contact him. Finally, on October one, twenty nineteen,
298
00:18:16.960 --> 00:18:21.079
Rika's son, Michael Russo, went to her Brookfield, Illinois home
299
00:18:21.160 --> 00:18:25.759
to see what was going on. Some reports state that
300
00:18:25.839 --> 00:18:28.640
Michael entered the house, while others state that the Brookfield
301
00:18:28.640 --> 00:18:31.000
Police Department were the ones who actually entered the home.
302
00:18:32.200 --> 00:18:34.359
Whoever entered the home found that the back door was
303
00:18:34.440 --> 00:18:37.000
open and that the air conditioning was running full blast.
304
00:18:38.119 --> 00:18:41.000
There were dirty, moldy dishes in the sink and cat
305
00:18:41.079 --> 00:18:44.319
vomit all over the house, something that Erica would never
306
00:18:44.400 --> 00:18:50.000
have tolerated. Her sister Dana told Dateline it was caused
307
00:18:50.000 --> 00:18:53.279
for concern because my sister would never have left a mess.
308
00:18:53.759 --> 00:18:55.799
She would have washed her dishes and taken care of
309
00:18:55.799 --> 00:19:01.359
her cats. Investigators also found, interestingly enough, a recent CCTV
310
00:19:01.400 --> 00:19:05.160
footage from Erica's home security cameras have been deleted, only
311
00:19:05.200 --> 00:19:12.039
adding to their suspicions. Erica's phone, bag, driver's license, house keys,
312
00:19:12.039 --> 00:19:15.240
and car keys, along with her twenty fourteen dark purple
313
00:19:15.319 --> 00:19:19.359
Nissan Juke Illinois plates E two seven three three eight
314
00:19:19.480 --> 00:19:22.599
zero were missing from the home, but her cats have
315
00:19:22.720 --> 00:19:26.599
been left behind. It's been said that Erica absolutely cherished
316
00:19:26.599 --> 00:19:29.039
her cats, and if she'd planned on leaving, she would
317
00:19:29.079 --> 00:19:32.240
have taken them with her. Because Erica's phone was missing,
318
00:19:32.359 --> 00:19:34.799
investigators trackted as far as they could and found that
319
00:19:34.839 --> 00:19:38.720
she had traveled through Brookfield, Decatur, and Mount Vermont on
320
00:19:38.759 --> 00:19:42.279
September twenty sixth, twenty nineteen. In addition to this, the
321
00:19:42.319 --> 00:19:46.799
phone had also pained in countryside Hodgkins, McCook, forest View, Summit,
322
00:19:46.839 --> 00:19:51.039
and Ridgeview. On October second, twenty nineteen, her phone was
323
00:19:51.079 --> 00:19:54.279
found dumped in a ditch in Springfield, Missouri, some five
324
00:19:54.359 --> 00:19:57.240
hundred and two miles away from her home in Brookfield, Illinois.
325
00:19:58.200 --> 00:20:00.720
Her sister Dana wrote a face bok book post on
326
00:20:00.759 --> 00:20:04.720
November eighth, twenty nineteen. It's a long post, so we'll
327
00:20:04.759 --> 00:20:08.480
just summarize the key parts they've searched the force preserves,
328
00:20:08.599 --> 00:20:11.319
impound lots and truck yards in the previous towns mentioned
329
00:20:11.319 --> 00:20:14.960
for her car, assuming that they're leaving no stone unturned,
330
00:20:16.000 --> 00:20:20.559
assuring me that they're leaving no stirn assuring me that
331
00:20:20.599 --> 00:20:24.440
they're leaving no stone unturned. Her info and her car
332
00:20:24.440 --> 00:20:27.039
info are listed in a system that law enforcement uses,
333
00:20:27.240 --> 00:20:29.799
meaning if her car has been left somewhere, the plates
334
00:20:29.839 --> 00:20:32.839
and or ben will alert them that she's been reported missing.

00:20:36.880 --> 00:20:40.559

340
00:20:52.440 --> 00:20:55.519
openings to show her picture and where to call. I
341
00:20:55.519 --> 00:20:58.880
can't even express how grateful we are to them. Please

343
00:21:01.200 --> 00:21:05.279
bring her home. Fifty three year old Erica Thompson was
344
00:21:05.359 --> 00:21:08.799
last seen on October twenty fifth, twenty nineteen, and is
345
00:21:08.799 --> 00:21:11.559
described as a white female with blonde hair and blue eyes.
346
00:21:12.119 --> 00:21:15.559
Her natural health crept, her natural hair color is brown,
347
00:21:15.640 --> 00:21:18.880
and her ears are double pierced. She has a tattoo

00:21:20.920 --> 00:21:23.839

Crime Stoppers on one eight hundred five three five stop
355
00:21:44.480 --> 00:21:49.880
number one. Glenda Peterson. The details of Glenda Peterson's nineteen
356
00:21:49.960 --> 00:21:53.039
ninety seven disappearance are few and far between, and with
357
00:21:53.079 --> 00:21:56.039
the passage of time, those details become harder and harder
358
00:21:56.039 --> 00:22:01.200
to come by. On July fourth, nineteen ninety seven, forty
359
00:22:01.279 --> 00:22:04.279
year old Glinda Jean Peterson spent today celebrating at Lake
360
00:22:04.319 --> 00:22:08.440
Thunderbird in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, with her sixteen year old daughter.
361
00:22:09.680 --> 00:22:11.759
Linda had just been through a rough divorce from her
362
00:22:11.839 --> 00:22:14.440
husband of fifteen years, and she was doing everything she
363
00:22:14.480 --> 00:22:17.240
could to make the fourth of July a fun family
364
00:22:17.319 --> 00:22:21.440
day for her daughter. At the time, Glinda had her
365
00:22:21.480 --> 00:22:23.559
right leg in a cast due to a break, but
366
00:22:23.640 --> 00:22:26.839
didn't let her injure DAP and her spirits. Linda and
367
00:22:26.880 --> 00:22:29.400
her daughter spent the day together before accepting a ride
368
00:22:29.400 --> 00:22:31.480
home from a man that they had met that day.
369
00:22:32.400 --> 00:22:35.240
Witnesses corroborated this story, saying that they saw the pair
370
00:22:35.319 --> 00:22:38.319
get into the man's dark colored pickup truck and drive away.
371
00:22:39.880 --> 00:22:42.839
Witnesses described the man as being white in his forties,
372
00:22:43.200 --> 00:22:45.519
six feet tall, one hundred and eighty pounds, with brown
373
00:22:45.559 --> 00:22:50.400
hair and a mustache. Then, somewhere along Highway nine, the
374
00:22:50.480 --> 00:22:53.480
unknown man pulled over at Glinda's request. Linda handed her
375
00:22:53.480 --> 00:22:55.240
back to her daughter, got out of the car, and
376
00:22:55.359 --> 00:22:58.119
was never seen or heard from again. This is about
377
00:22:58.119 --> 00:23:00.680
as much information as we have in Glnda's cakey. Linda's
378
00:23:00.720 --> 00:23:03.480
niece Brandy told Dateline did she know she was in
379
00:23:03.559 --> 00:23:05.720
danger so she just wanted to keep her daughter safe.
380
00:23:06.279 --> 00:23:08.079
There are so many holes in the story. We just
381
00:23:08.079 --> 00:23:11.799
don't know. Glinda's mysterious disappearance of one of those cases
382
00:23:11.799 --> 00:23:14.920
where we are simply left with more questions than answers.
383
00:23:15.720 --> 00:23:18.359
Multiple searches have been conducted by the Norman Police Department,
384
00:23:18.400 --> 00:23:20.799
and cadaver dogs were even called in, but nothing has
385
00:23:20.839 --> 00:23:24.480
ever been found. Each year, Glenda's children watch other families
386
00:23:24.480 --> 00:23:27.319
celebrating July fourth, hoping and praying that one day their
387
00:23:27.319 --> 00:23:29.000
mother will come home so they can do the same
388
00:23:29.039 --> 00:23:32.640
once again. Linda Jean Peterson was last seen on the
389
00:23:32.640 --> 00:23:36.759
side Highway nine on July fourth, nineteen ninety seven. She
390
00:23:36.799 --> 00:23:38.799
has described as a white female with black hair and
391
00:23:38.799 --> 00:23:41.799
brown eyes, although the photographs provided her show her with
392
00:23:41.880 --> 00:23:44.920
blonde hair. Linda has a tattoo the letter G on
393
00:23:44.960 --> 00:23:47.680
her left forearm, a letter B on her left hand,
394
00:23:48.400 --> 00:23:51.279
an artificial jaw, and a scar on her neck. At
395
00:23:51.279 --> 00:23:53.759
the time of her disappearance, Glinda's right leg was broken
396
00:23:53.799 --> 00:23:56.599
and was in a cast. The Charlie Project notes that
397
00:23:56.640 --> 00:24:00.480
Glinda goes with the nicknames Blondie and Sunshine. May use
398
00:24:00.480 --> 00:24:05.000
the surnames Adams, Kurnipt, Darley and Deal. Anyone with any
399
00:24:05.000 --> 00:24:08.119
information is urged to contact the Norman Police Department on

1
00:00:02.120 --> 00:00:08.199
Hello friends, today bringing you part three of our Unbelievably
2
00:00:08.359 --> 00:00:13.000
Bizarre and Creepy Disappearances series. These are some of the
3
00:00:13.080 --> 00:00:17.280
strangest disappearances we've come across in all our research, and
4
00:00:17.440 --> 00:00:23.120
let's begin number five. Chance Engelbert, twenty five year old
5
00:00:23.199 --> 00:00:26.199
Chance Engelbert, was last seen leaving the seven hundred block
6
00:00:26.239 --> 00:00:29.879
of O Street in Garret, Nebraska, at around seven thirty
7
00:00:29.879 --> 00:00:35.640
pm on Saturday, July sixth, twenty nineteen. Chance, his wife Bailey,
8
00:00:35.799 --> 00:00:38.759
and their son Banks, who lived in Wyoming, had spent
9
00:00:38.799 --> 00:00:42.320
the sunny Saturday visiting Bailey's family, with articles reporting that
10
00:00:42.359 --> 00:00:46.119
they spent today golfing. Chance had recently accepted a new
11
00:00:46.200 --> 00:00:48.840
job with a propane company after he had recently been
12
00:00:48.920 --> 00:00:52.200
laid off from his previous job at a coal mine.
13
00:00:52.520 --> 00:00:56.159
Bailey's family didn't seem to like this job move. Chance,
14
00:00:56.439 --> 00:00:58.759
his father in law, and other members of Bailey's family
15
00:00:58.840 --> 00:01:02.799
all began arguing. Bailey drove over to pick Chance up
16
00:01:02.840 --> 00:01:06.280
before heading to her grandparents' house to collect a few things.
17
00:01:06.840 --> 00:01:09.959
During the car ride, Chance became upset again and asked
18
00:01:10.000 --> 00:01:12.200
Bailey to drive him home, to which she said no.
19
00:01:13.680 --> 00:01:15.719
Chance then called up one of his friends for a
20
00:01:15.799 --> 00:01:20.280
ride home. Sadly, for Chance, the friend wasn't able to help,
21
00:01:20.319 --> 00:01:23.239
so Chance left the seven hundred block of O Street
22
00:01:23.519 --> 00:01:28.719
and began to walk towards Torrington, Wyoming. According to Google Maps,
23
00:01:29.280 --> 00:01:31.599
if Chance was planning to walk the whole way, it
24
00:01:31.680 --> 00:01:34.000
would have taken him close to twelve hours on foot.
25
00:01:34.920 --> 00:01:36.560
There were two routes he could have taken if he
26
00:01:36.599 --> 00:01:38.920
was in a car, both ending up on the US
27
00:01:39.000 --> 00:01:43.680
twenty six W and taking around forty three minutes. Bailey
28
00:01:43.760 --> 00:01:46.280
told investigators that she last spoke to Chance on the
29
00:01:46.319 --> 00:01:49.359
phone at seven forty six pm, and he told her
30
00:01:49.400 --> 00:01:53.799
that he was walking south, whereas friends told investigators that
31
00:01:53.840 --> 00:01:56.280
they had spoken to Chance around the same time and
32
00:01:56.359 --> 00:01:59.640
he told him he was headed north towards Torrington, Wyoming.
33
00:02:00.840 --> 00:02:03.519
At nine oh eight pm, Chance's phone sent a final
34
00:02:03.599 --> 00:02:05.879
text that was just a string of emojis and numbers.
35
00:02:06.760 --> 00:02:10.240
Chance's mother, Dawn, said that Chance never used emojis and
36
00:02:10.319 --> 00:02:14.439
speculates that the text was sent by someone else. At
37
00:02:14.520 --> 00:02:17.680
nine pm that evening, a large thunderstorm rolled through the area,
38
00:02:17.840 --> 00:02:20.400
and Bailey and her family assumed that Chance had found
39
00:02:20.400 --> 00:02:23.240
shelter somewhere and would be in contact with him soon.
40
00:02:24.599 --> 00:02:27.599
Bailey's grandfather went out looking for Chance, but found no
41
00:02:27.639 --> 00:02:32.080
sign of the man. Bailey told a NBC news I
42
00:02:32.120 --> 00:02:35.000
still wasn't that worried. I figured he comes linking in
43
00:02:35.120 --> 00:02:38.639
late that night, but he didn't. And when I woke
44
00:02:38.719 --> 00:02:41.319
up the next morning and he wasn't there, I knew
45
00:02:41.400 --> 00:02:45.840
it was bad. Chance friends and family tried desperately to
46
00:02:45.879 --> 00:02:48.159
contact him, but his phone had been turned off shortly
47
00:02:48.199 --> 00:02:50.400
after nine oh eight pm when he had sent the
48
00:02:50.439 --> 00:02:55.719
cryptic text message. Realizing that something was wrong, Chance's family
49
00:02:55.840 --> 00:02:59.800
called the police and officially reported him missing. Investigators just
50
00:02:59.800 --> 00:03:02.400
got that Chance's phone had last pinged off a tower
51
00:03:02.400 --> 00:03:07.560
on County Road nineteen near Scott's Bluff, Nebraska. They also
52
00:03:07.639 --> 00:03:11.199
found the CCTV footage showing Chance walking alone along the
53
00:03:11.240 --> 00:03:16.000
intersection of Terry Boulevard and Stable Club Road. After this sighting,
54
00:03:16.360 --> 00:03:21.400
he mysteriously vanished. Once Chance had been reported missing, the
55
00:03:21.439 --> 00:03:24.159
Gearing Police Department sprung into action and called in the
56
00:03:24.199 --> 00:03:29.000
help of eighteen agencies, including drones, divers, dogs, horseback riders,
57
00:03:29.159 --> 00:03:32.080
and one hundred and forty seven volunteers, who managed to
58
00:03:32.080 --> 00:03:36.360
cover twenty four hundred acres on foot. The Nebraska State
59
00:03:36.400 --> 00:03:39.639
Patrol helicopter team and Airlink managed to cover combined to
60
00:03:39.680 --> 00:03:42.680
three hundred and eighty miles during the search effort, but
61
00:03:42.759 --> 00:03:46.960
no sign of Chance could be found. Authorities were concerned
62
00:03:47.000 --> 00:03:49.080
for his well being as the rains on the evening
63
00:03:49.120 --> 00:03:52.199
the Chance disappeared were described as heavy and cold. In
64
00:03:52.199 --> 00:03:56.240
addition to the dangers of lightning, it was also postulated
65
00:03:56.240 --> 00:03:59.439
that Chance may have fallen into river or stream or
66
00:03:59.520 --> 00:04:03.759
suffered from hypothermia due to the weather conditions. Since that
67
00:04:03.879 --> 00:04:07.199
July day, Chance Ingelbert has never been seen or heard
68
00:04:07.199 --> 00:04:11.439
from again, and his family are desperate for answers. His
69
00:04:11.520 --> 00:04:14.360
mother made a plead a Chance, saying, please call somebody.
70
00:04:14.840 --> 00:04:17.319
You don't have to come home. We just want to
71
00:04:17.319 --> 00:04:21.839
know that you're safe. Our heart aches every day every night.
72
00:04:23.279 --> 00:04:26.399
In the wake of chance disappearance, his mother Dawn created
73
00:04:26.439 --> 00:04:30.120
the Help Find Chase Ingelbert Facebook page that she uses
74
00:04:30.160 --> 00:04:33.480
to keep his case alive, as well as the post updates.
75
00:04:34.199 --> 00:04:37.879
In early November twenty twenty one, and armbone and sure
76
00:04:38.040 --> 00:04:41.279
were found near Malbetta, Nebraska, which is eight and a
77
00:04:41.279 --> 00:04:45.399
half miles south of where Chance was last seen. Has
78
00:04:45.439 --> 00:04:48.079
not yet been confirmed whether these belonged to Chants and
79
00:04:48.160 --> 00:04:52.319
DNA testing is currently underway. In a Facebook post on
80
00:04:52.360 --> 00:04:57.439
November two, twenty twenty one, chance mother Don wrote, We'd
81
00:04:57.439 --> 00:04:59.079
like to take a moment to thank you all for
82
00:04:59.120 --> 00:05:03.040
prayers call some messages. Were aware of the news releases
83
00:05:03.040 --> 00:05:06.040
of remains found in Scott's Bluff County and have talked
84
00:05:06.079 --> 00:05:09.519
with officials. Until the DNA is released, there is not
85
00:05:09.600 --> 00:05:13.600
one hundred percent answer, spends on the lab's workload and
86
00:05:13.639 --> 00:05:16.680
it could take weeks for those answers, So for now,
87
00:05:16.959 --> 00:05:20.240
please govern our family a little extra prayers. Thank you.
88
00:05:21.920 --> 00:05:24.439
Time will tell whether these remains belong to Chase or
89
00:05:24.480 --> 00:05:27.279
where the family will have to keep on fighting for answers.
90
00:05:27.959 --> 00:05:31.240
Twenty five year old Chase Ingelbert was last seen on
91
00:05:31.279 --> 00:05:35.079
the seven hundred block of Oa Street in Gearing, Nebraska.
92
00:05:35.240 --> 00:05:38.839

Police Department on three zero eight four three six five
102
00:06:09.759 --> 00:06:17.560
zero eight eight number four. Sonny Shrami Eighteen year old
103
00:06:17.680 --> 00:06:21.040
Sonny Shramac left her home in Trent, Nebraska on April twentieth,
104
00:06:21.079 --> 00:06:24.519
twenty nineteen, and told her mother, follow Johnson, that she
105
00:06:24.600 --> 00:06:27.000
was going on a road trip with a male acquaintance.
106
00:06:28.079 --> 00:06:31.600
This person was not named in publications. However, a member
107
00:06:31.600 --> 00:06:34.040
of Sonny's family named him as forty two year old
108
00:06:34.040 --> 00:06:38.319
Floyd Clifford Coats, who goes by cliff The nature of
109
00:06:38.360 --> 00:06:43.759
their relationship is currently unknown. Sonny is married, However, the
110
00:06:43.839 --> 00:06:46.560
identity of Sonny's husband has been withheld from the public
111
00:06:46.600 --> 00:06:49.120
and her parents have not discussed this detail at length.
112
00:06:50.120 --> 00:06:53.680
One article notes her parents say she married young, believing
113
00:06:53.680 --> 00:06:56.160
it was a good choice, but went through more growing
114
00:06:56.240 --> 00:06:58.759
and trying to do things right, so it was currently
115
00:06:58.839 --> 00:07:02.680
living with her mother, Paula to sort things out. Paula
116
00:07:02.839 --> 00:07:04.959
watched her daughter get into the two thousand and four
117
00:07:05.120 --> 00:07:09.879
white Ford Explorer with Iowa license plate HGJ three four one,
118
00:07:10.519 --> 00:07:13.160
and then watches her daughter and the unknown man drove away.
119
00:07:14.519 --> 00:07:16.639
Little did Paula know that this would be the last
120
00:07:16.639 --> 00:07:19.240
time she would ever see her daughter, who she described
121
00:07:19.240 --> 00:07:23.519
as bright and artistic. At around one pm on April twentieth,
122
00:07:23.560 --> 00:07:27.000
twenty nineteen, Sonny called her mom Paula, to let her
123
00:07:27.040 --> 00:07:29.000
know that everything was going well and that they were
124
00:07:29.040 --> 00:07:33.000
possibly headed for Omaha, Nebraska. The pair talked, and Sonny
125
00:07:33.000 --> 00:07:36.639
told Paula that she was in Holdridge, Nebraska and that
126
00:07:36.800 --> 00:07:41.480
everything was good. A KSMB local article states that Sonny
127
00:07:41.480 --> 00:07:44.079
had called using a borrowed phone because she left hers
128
00:07:44.079 --> 00:07:47.360
at home before embarking on the trip. On the evening
129
00:07:47.439 --> 00:07:51.600
of April twentieth, twenty nineteen, Paula received a horrific phone call.
130
00:07:52.560 --> 00:07:54.879
On the other end of the line was Cliff Coates,
131
00:07:54.920 --> 00:07:56.839
who said that he had gone into the Prairie Flower
132
00:07:56.920 --> 00:07:59.879
Casino in Carter Lake, Iowa, and then when he stepped
133
00:07:59.879 --> 00:08:04.519
out outside, Sonny was gone. NBC reported that Paula had
134
00:08:04.519 --> 00:08:07.240
written on the GoFundMe page that he said he had
135
00:08:07.240 --> 00:08:11.120
looked for couldn't find her, so he left. He left
136
00:08:11.120 --> 00:08:14.519
the area without Sonny, no call to the police, no nothing.
137
00:08:16.000 --> 00:08:19.399
At one point, his story changed. They stopped at a
138
00:08:19.399 --> 00:08:21.959
gas station in Omaha, and he went in to pay
139
00:08:21.959 --> 00:08:25.240
for the gas. When he returned to the vehicle, Sonny
140
00:08:25.360 --> 00:08:29.639
was gone. On April twenty first, twenty nineteen, when Sonny
141
00:08:29.680 --> 00:08:32.159
had still failed to make contact with her parents, Paula
142
00:08:32.159 --> 00:08:35.799
and Jodie, she was officially reported missing and an investigation
143
00:08:35.960 --> 00:08:40.039
was open. An extensive search in Nebraska and Iowa took place,
144
00:08:40.440 --> 00:08:44.240
but there was no sign of Sonny. Because she was eighteen,
145
00:08:44.440 --> 00:08:46.440
she was too old for an Amber alert, but the
146
00:08:46.440 --> 00:08:49.759
authorities still did the best they could to publicize Sonny's case.
147
00:08:51.120 --> 00:08:53.799
Ours turned to days, and Sonny's family became more and
148
00:08:53.799 --> 00:08:57.519
more desperate as each hour passed. Soon after she was
149
00:08:57.559 --> 00:09:00.960
reported missing, the FBI became involved in some case and
150
00:09:01.039 --> 00:09:04.320
are now asking for anyone with information to please come forward.
151
00:09:05.480 --> 00:09:07.840
Sonny's family are also heavily involved in the search for
152
00:09:07.879 --> 00:09:11.480
their missing loved one. Her cousin Rinny Blom created the
153
00:09:11.639 --> 00:09:15.639
Fine Sunny Shramik Facebook page and regularly hands out flyers
154
00:09:15.639 --> 00:09:20.759
and leaflets across Nebraska. Interestingly enough, Cliff Coates has an
155
00:09:20.759 --> 00:09:24.159
extensive criminal history and this is something that we couldn't
156
00:09:24.159 --> 00:09:27.679
pass up on. Mentioning Heavy dot Com wrote an article
157
00:09:27.679 --> 00:09:29.960
about Sonny's case and managed to dig up all of
158
00:09:30.039 --> 00:09:34.360
Cliff's prior convictions. Turns out that he has a criminal
159
00:09:34.399 --> 00:09:38.639
record in Kansas, Iowa, and Nebraska. In Kansas, he was
160
00:09:38.720 --> 00:09:43.000
charged for drug offenses and attempting to evade police. His
161
00:09:43.000 --> 00:09:46.240
prison record isn't squeaky clean either, having twenty five ride
162
00:09:46.320 --> 00:09:50.919
ups for battery, lying, disrespect of an officer, disobeying orders,
163
00:09:50.960 --> 00:09:55.759
and having sexually explicit material. Lip's criminal history doesn't stop there.
164
00:09:56.480 --> 00:09:59.759
In Nebraska, he was convicted of false imprisonment, distribution of
165
00:09:59.720 --> 00:10:04.360
methad amphetamine, possession of a deadly weapon, carrying a concealed weapon,
166
00:10:05.039 --> 00:10:09.320
assault by a confined person, theft by receiving stolen property,
167
00:10:09.480 --> 00:10:15.240
and possession of marijuana. On June tenth, twenty nineteen, Remy
168
00:10:15.279 --> 00:10:18.919
Blom posted again to the Facebook page Find Sonny Shrimick,
169
00:10:19.600 --> 00:10:22.440
saying I have a little info to share for my aunt.
170
00:10:22.840 --> 00:10:26.720
Here's the update. Coach was arrested recently but was bonded
171
00:10:26.799 --> 00:10:30.799
soon after. I'm hoping that they can learn something anything
172
00:10:30.879 --> 00:10:34.840
from him. At least he was found. I'm sharing this
173
00:10:35.039 --> 00:10:37.440
so y'all are aware, but as far as what happened
174
00:10:37.440 --> 00:10:40.279
prior to this or what he was arrested for that
175
00:10:40.440 --> 00:10:45.320
is not being shared by the family. Investigators haven't publicly
176
00:10:45.399 --> 00:10:48.639
named Cliff as a suspect in Sonny's case, and despite
177
00:10:48.720 --> 00:10:51.919
all these leads and all this information, her case has
178
00:10:51.960 --> 00:10:56.360
sadly gone cold. Sonny's family are desperately seeking answers for
179
00:10:56.440 --> 00:10:59.320
what happened to her. She was in the process of
180
00:10:59.360 --> 00:11:02.360
finishing high school and it's extremely out of character for
181
00:11:02.399 --> 00:11:06.240
her to just have wandered off. Sonny's described as white
182
00:11:06.240 --> 00:11:09.519
female with brown hair and blue eyes. She's five foot
183
00:11:09.559 --> 00:11:12.399
seven inches tall, one hundred and eighty pounds, and has
184
00:11:12.559 --> 00:11:17.080
numerous distinguishing features, which are as follows. Sony has a
185
00:11:17.120 --> 00:11:19.240
tattoo on her left shoulder of a feather with the
186
00:11:19.320 --> 00:11:23.039
letters fl y, a tattoo of a red tribal son
187
00:11:23.080 --> 00:11:26.679
on her right ankle. She also has a rectangular scar
188
00:11:26.759 --> 00:11:29.679
on the back of her right shoulder, a small square
189
00:11:29.720 --> 00:11:32.960
shaped scar in the middle of her upper forehead, scarring
190
00:11:32.960 --> 00:11:36.000
on one of her ankles, and shin scars, some chicken
191
00:11:36.039 --> 00:11:38.879
pox on her face, a scar on her left hand
192
00:11:38.879 --> 00:11:41.600
at the bottom of her thumb and first finger, and
193
00:11:41.639 --> 00:11:45.519
a sworded cuts on her arm. Sonny was last seen
194
00:11:45.559 --> 00:11:49.440
wearing denim shorts and a black vest top, but her mother, Paula,
195
00:11:49.480 --> 00:11:51.879
told investigators that she was carrying a pair of jeans
196
00:11:51.879 --> 00:11:54.799
and a hoodie when she went missing. If you have
197
00:11:54.840 --> 00:11:58.519
any information, you're urge to please contact the FBI's Amaha
198
00:11:58.600 --> 00:12:02.639

202
00:12:18.720 --> 00:12:23.720
Matthew Weaver Junior, twenty one year old Matthew Weaver Junior
203
00:12:23.840 --> 00:12:26.440
was in a transitional period in his life. He had
204
00:12:26.519 --> 00:12:29.360
just moved into his own apartment in Granada Hills, California,
205
00:12:29.480 --> 00:12:32.240
to be closer to his job, and he had recently
206
00:12:32.279 --> 00:12:36.840
broken up with his long term girlfriend. The breakup affected Matthew,
207
00:12:36.960 --> 00:12:38.600
but as he had moved to a new area, he
208
00:12:38.639 --> 00:12:41.120
slowly began building up a new circle of friends and
209
00:12:41.279 --> 00:12:45.639
was back out there partying and hanging out. On August ninth,
210
00:12:45.720 --> 00:12:49.240
twenty eighteen, Matthew spent the day working before going to
211
00:12:49.320 --> 00:12:52.320
hang out with a new female friend that he had made.
212
00:12:52.480 --> 00:12:56.559
According to his father, Matthew Weaver Senior, Matthew Junior appeared
213
00:12:56.600 --> 00:12:58.759
excited at the prospect of hanging out with his new
214
00:12:58.799 --> 00:13:01.559
friend and said that nothing seemed out of the ordinary.
215
00:13:02.639 --> 00:13:05.279
According to NBC, the pair hung out until the early
216
00:13:05.320 --> 00:13:08.480
morning hours of August tenth, with Matthew Junior dropping the
217
00:13:08.480 --> 00:13:12.679
woman off at her place around four thirty am. From there,
218
00:13:13.039 --> 00:13:16.080
Matthew Junior sent a text to his friend saying something
219
00:13:16.240 --> 00:13:19.919
crazy has happened, also adding I want to talk while
220
00:13:19.960 --> 00:13:25.120
I have the chance. Matthew Jr. Also Sent a text
221
00:13:25.120 --> 00:13:28.840
to his ex stepmother Brook. The two remained close friends
222
00:13:28.840 --> 00:13:31.559
even when Matthew Junior's father and she divorced, as she
223
00:13:31.600 --> 00:13:37.919
had raised him from a young age. Brooke claims that
224
00:13:37.960 --> 00:13:40.039
some of the text were jumbled and didn't make much
225
00:13:40.080 --> 00:13:44.279
sense at all. At around eleven thirty am, Matthew Jr.
226
00:13:44.399 --> 00:13:46.200
Then Caused the woman he was hanging out with the
227
00:13:46.320 --> 00:13:49.399
night before, but she doesn't answer because she's at work.
228
00:13:50.440 --> 00:13:52.759
She texts him asking what's wrong and telling him that
229
00:13:52.799 --> 00:13:56.639
she is unable to answer right now. Matthew never replied
230
00:13:56.679 --> 00:13:59.200
to the text from Brook or the unknown woman, and
231
00:13:59.279 --> 00:14:03.279
since then he has mysteriously fallen off the map. Brooke
232
00:14:03.320 --> 00:14:06.000
told NBC that Matthew's phone is still linked to his
233
00:14:06.039 --> 00:14:09.200
ex girlfriend's account, so they were able to retrieve phone
234
00:14:09.240 --> 00:14:13.799
records relatively quickly. These records showed that Matthew Junior's location
235
00:14:13.879 --> 00:14:16.240
at the time of sending those texts was the Lost
236
00:14:16.360 --> 00:14:19.559
Rosa Overlook near Stunt and Saddle Peak Roads in the
237
00:14:19.600 --> 00:14:25.200
Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area. This was later confirmed
238
00:14:25.279 --> 00:14:29.200
when CCTV cameras in the area captured Matthew Junior's BMW
239
00:14:29.320 --> 00:14:33.480
driving along the road to Los Roses Overlook. When Brooke
240
00:14:33.519 --> 00:14:36.799
hadn't received reply from her step son, she began to worry.
241
00:14:37.519 --> 00:14:39.799
She began calling all his friends to see if they
242
00:14:39.799 --> 00:14:42.600
had heard from him, but to her horror, no one had.
243
00:14:43.639 --> 00:14:47.679
Unbeknownst to Brook and Matthew Senior, the California Highway Patrol
244
00:14:47.759 --> 00:14:51.480
discovered Matthew Junior's car abandoned on the Topanga Tower Motorway,
245
00:14:51.919 --> 00:14:56.360
close to the Lost Rosa Overlook. They chased the car's
246
00:14:56.399 --> 00:14:59.399
registration and found that it belonged to Matthew Weaver Junior.
247
00:15:00.519 --> 00:15:02.960
After speaking with his family, they realized that he had
248
00:15:02.960 --> 00:15:07.960
not made contact with him since August eleventh. Subsequently, a
249
00:15:08.000 --> 00:15:11.120
missing person report was filed and Matthew Weaver Junior was
250
00:15:11.200 --> 00:15:15.919
officially listed as a missing person. Multiple searches have been
251
00:15:15.960 --> 00:15:19.759
conducted by multiple agencies, but no trace of Matthew has
252
00:15:19.879 --> 00:15:24.759
ever been found. Brooke told NBC there is no way
253
00:15:24.799 --> 00:15:28.120
that kid just fell off the grid and disappeared. For me,
254
00:15:28.519 --> 00:15:32.720
that's not possible. I'm super close with Matthew. He tells
255
00:15:32.759 --> 00:15:36.039
me everything, He calls me anytime he's in a bind.
256
00:15:36.840 --> 00:15:39.320
He would never let his little siblings sit there and
257
00:15:39.399 --> 00:15:44.240
think he might be dead. Then, in January twenty nineteen,
258
00:15:44.720 --> 00:15:48.279
hikers discovered Matthew Junior's car keys just twenty five meters
259
00:15:48.320 --> 00:15:51.519
from where his car had been discovered. It's unknown where
260
00:15:51.559 --> 00:15:54.200
these keys were overlooked during the initial search, or whether
261
00:15:54.240 --> 00:15:56.720
they had been intentionally placed there at a later date.
262
00:15:58.600 --> 00:16:02.159
While out conducting his own for his son, Matthew Senor
263
00:16:02.320 --> 00:16:04.720
discovered shreds of a white T shirt that he believes
264
00:16:04.720 --> 00:16:07.840
his son was wearing on the day he disappeared. A
265
00:16:07.879 --> 00:16:12.000
red Los Angeles Angels hat was also found, which Matthew
266
00:16:12.039 --> 00:16:17.120
Senior also said belonged to his son. The Los Angeles
267
00:16:17.159 --> 00:16:20.919
Police Department's Missing Persons Unit has since taken over Matthew's case.
268
00:16:21.879 --> 00:16:24.559
Matthew Weaver Jr. Is described as a white meal with
269
00:16:24.639 --> 00:16:27.600
brown hair and brown eyes. He's five foot nine inches
270
00:16:27.639 --> 00:16:31.720
tall and weighs one hundred and sixty five pounds. Matthew
271
00:16:31.799 --> 00:16:34.320
Junior has a tattoo of the name Jeremiah on the
272
00:16:34.399 --> 00:16:38.360
left side of his chest. Some of Matthew Junior's friends
273
00:16:38.399 --> 00:16:40.600
say that he sustained a head injury in the days
274
00:16:40.600 --> 00:16:43.720
before his disappearance, and that he may be concussed or
275
00:16:43.799 --> 00:16:48.720
have other behavior issues arriving from this. Matthew Junior was
276
00:16:48.799 --> 00:16:51.120
last seen wearing a plain black or white T shirt,
277
00:16:52.000 --> 00:16:56.799
black Dicky's pants, red shoes, and a Los Angeles Angels
278
00:16:56.799 --> 00:17:00.639
baseball cap. If you have any information, your urge to

00:17:00.679 --> 00:17:04.039

281
00:17:09.519 --> 00:17:11.559
If you wish to remain anonymous, you can leave a
282
00:17:11.599 --> 00:17:14.880
tip with the LA Regional Crime Stoppers on one eight
283
00:17:15.000 --> 00:17:24.559
hundred two two two tips number two. Erica Thompson fifty
284
00:17:24.559 --> 00:17:27.319
three year old Erica Thompson had recently broken up from
285
00:17:27.319 --> 00:17:30.279
a two year relationship was now living alone with her
286
00:17:30.319 --> 00:17:35.480
cats in a Brookfield, Illinois home. Erica's sister, Dana, said
287
00:17:35.480 --> 00:17:37.839
that the pair regularly kept in contact with each other,
288
00:17:39.000 --> 00:17:41.480
and then Erica always kept in contact with her family.
289
00:17:42.279 --> 00:17:44.400
So when Erica failed to show up for work on
290
00:17:44.440 --> 00:17:48.079
September twenty six to twenty nineteen, her co workers noted
291
00:17:48.079 --> 00:17:51.880
that it was extremely out of character. Dana recalled that
292
00:17:51.920 --> 00:17:54.319
she had last spoken with her sister via email on
293
00:17:54.400 --> 00:17:59.960
September twenty third, twenty nineteen. Erica was captured on CCTV
294
00:18:00.319 --> 00:18:04.079
on September twenty fifth, twenty nineteen, making a deposit at
295
00:18:04.119 --> 00:18:07.440
a bank. She's not been seen or heard from since.
296
00:18:08.880 --> 00:18:11.680
Days passed, and Erica's family became more and more concerned
297
00:18:11.720 --> 00:18:16.480
when she didn't contact him. Finally, on October one, twenty nineteen,
298
00:18:16.960 --> 00:18:21.079
Rika's son, Michael Russo, went to her Brookfield, Illinois home
299
00:18:21.160 --> 00:18:25.759
to see what was going on. Some reports state that
300
00:18:25.839 --> 00:18:28.640
Michael entered the house, while others state that the Brookfield
301
00:18:28.640 --> 00:18:31.000
Police Department were the ones who actually entered the home.
302
00:18:32.200 --> 00:18:34.359
Whoever entered the home found that the back door was
303
00:18:34.440 --> 00:18:37.000
open and that the air conditioning was running full blast.
304
00:18:38.119 --> 00:18:41.000
There were dirty, moldy dishes in the sink and cat
305
00:18:41.079 --> 00:18:44.319
vomit all over the house, something that Erica would never
306
00:18:44.400 --> 00:18:50.000
have tolerated. Her sister Dana told Dateline it was caused
307
00:18:50.000 --> 00:18:53.279
for concern because my sister would never have left a mess.
308
00:18:53.759 --> 00:18:55.799
She would have washed her dishes and taken care of
309
00:18:55.799 --> 00:19:01.359
her cats. Investigators also found, interestingly enough, a recent CCTV
310
00:19:01.400 --> 00:19:05.160
footage from Erica's home security cameras have been deleted, only
311
00:19:05.200 --> 00:19:12.039
adding to their suspicions. Erica's phone, bag, driver's license, house keys,
312
00:19:12.039 --> 00:19:15.240
and car keys, along with her twenty fourteen dark purple
313
00:19:15.319 --> 00:19:19.359
Nissan Juke Illinois plates E two seven three three eight
314
00:19:19.480 --> 00:19:22.599
zero were missing from the home, but her cats have
315
00:19:22.720 --> 00:19:26.599
been left behind. It's been said that Erica absolutely cherished
316
00:19:26.599 --> 00:19:29.039
her cats, and if she'd planned on leaving, she would
317
00:19:29.079 --> 00:19:32.240
have taken them with her. Because Erica's phone was missing,
318
00:19:32.359 --> 00:19:34.799
investigators trackted as far as they could and found that
319
00:19:34.839 --> 00:19:38.720
she had traveled through Brookfield, Decatur, and Mount Vermont on
320
00:19:38.759 --> 00:19:42.279
September twenty sixth, twenty nineteen. In addition to this, the
321
00:19:42.319 --> 00:19:46.799
phone had also pained in countryside Hodgkins, McCook, forest View, Summit,
322
00:19:46.839 --> 00:19:51.039
and Ridgeview. On October second, twenty nineteen, her phone was
323
00:19:51.079 --> 00:19:54.279
found dumped in a ditch in Springfield, Missouri, some five
324
00:19:54.359 --> 00:19:57.240
hundred and two miles away from her home in Brookfield, Illinois.
325
00:19:58.200 --> 00:20:00.720
Her sister Dana wrote a face bok book post on
326
00:20:00.759 --> 00:20:04.720

Crime Stoppers on one eight hundred five three five stop
355
00:21:44.480 --> 00:21:49.880
number one. Glenda Peterson. The details of Glenda Peterson's nineteen
356
00:21:49.960 --> 00:21:53.039
ninety seven disappearance are few and far between, and with
357
00:21:53.079 --> 00:21:56.039
the passage of time, those details become harder and harder
358
00:21:56.039 --> 00:22:01.200
to come by. On July fourth, nineteen ninety seven, forty
359
00:22:01.279 --> 00:22:04.279
year old Glinda Jean Peterson spent today celebrating at Lake
360
00:22:04.319 --> 00:22:08.440
Thunderbird in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, with her sixteen year old daughter.
361
00:22:09.680 --> 00:22:11.759
Linda had just been through a rough divorce from her
362
00:22:11.839 --> 00:22:14.440
husband of fifteen years, and she was doing everything she
363
00:22:14.480 --> 00:22:17.240
could to make the fourth of July a fun family
364
00:22:17.319 --> 00:22:21.440
day for her daughter. At the time, Glinda had her
365
00:22:21.480 --> 00:22:23.559
right leg in a cast due to a break, but
366
00:22:23.640 --> 00:22:26.839
didn't let her injure DAP and her spirits. Linda and
367
00:22:26.880 --> 00:22:29.400
her daughter spent the day together before accepting a ride
368
00:22:29.400 --> 00:22:31.480
home from a man that they had met that day.
369
00:22:32.400 --> 00:22:35.240
Witnesses corroborated this story, saying that they saw the pair
370
00:22:35.319 --> 00:22:38.319
get into the man's dark colored pickup truck and drive away.
371
00:22:39.880 --> 00:22:42.839
Witnesses described the man as being white in his forties,
372
00:22:43.200 --> 00:22:45.519
six feet tall, one hundred and eighty pounds, with brown
373
00:22:45.559 --> 00:22:50.400
hair and a mustache. Then, somewhere along Highway nine, the
374
00:22:50.480 --> 00:22:53.480
unknown man pulled over at Glinda's request. Linda handed her
375
00:22:53.480 --> 00:22:55.240
back to her daughter, got out of the car, and
376
00:22:55.359 --> 00:22:58.119
was never seen or heard from again. This is about
377
00:22:58.119 --> 00:23:00.680
as much information as we have in Glnda's cakey. Linda's
378
00:23:00.720 --> 00:23:03.480
niece Brandy told Dateline did she know she was in
379
00:23:03.559 --> 00:23:05.720
danger so she just wanted to keep her daughter safe.
380
00:23:06.279 --> 00:23:08.079
There are so many holes in the story. We just
381
00:23:08.079 --> 00:23:11.799
don't know. Glinda's mysterious disappearance of one of those cases
382
00:23:11.799 --> 00:23:14.920
where we are simply left with more questions than answers.
383
00:23:15.720 --> 00:23:18.359
Multiple searches have been conducted by the Norman Police Department,
384
00:23:18.400 --> 00:23:20.799
and cadaver dogs were even called in, but nothing has
385
00:23:20.839 --> 00:23:24.480
ever been found. Each year, Glenda's children watch other families
386
00:23:24.480 --> 00:23:27.319
celebrating July fourth, hoping and praying that one day their
387
00:23:27.319 --> 00:23:29.000
mother will come home so they can do the same
388
00:23:29.039 --> 00:23:32.640
once again. Linda Jean Peterson was last seen on the
389
00:23:32.640 --> 00:23:36.759

390
00:23:36.799 --> 00:23:38.799
has described as a white female with black hair and
391
00:23:38.799 --> 00:23:41.799
brown eyes, although the photographs provided her show her with
392
00:23:41.880 --> 00:23:44.920
blonde hair. Linda has a tattoo the letter G on
393
00:23:44.960 --> 00:23:47.680
her left forearm, a letter B on her left hand,
394
00:23:48.400 --> 00:23:51.279
an artificial jaw, and a scar on her neck. At
395
00:23:51.279 --> 00:23:53.759
the time of her disappearance, Glinda's right leg was broken
396
00:23:53.799 --> 00:23:56.599
and was in a cast. The Charlie Project notes that
397
00:23:56.640 --> 00:24:00.480
Glinda goes with the nicknames Blondie and Sunshine. May use
398
00:24:00.480 --> 00:24:05.000
