About this episode
The episode discusses the mysterious disappearance of John and Shelly Markley in 1995 and the ongoing questions surrounding their case.
On the morning of December 15, 1995, 36-year-old John Markley and his 32-year-old wife, Shelly, went to the bank to cash a check. But by later that afternoon, the couple had seemingly disappeared without a trace. Their five children came home from school to an unlocked house and several things out of place. More than 30 years later, John and Shelly are still missing, and one question continues to linger: did someone make them disappear? Anyone with additional information or questions regarding this case should contact Trumbull County Sheriff's Office at (330) 675-2540.
