Introducing Valley of Shadows: The Devil's Punchbowl
About this episode
The episode previews a true crime podcast exploring the mysterious disappearance of Deputy Jon Aujay in California's Devil's Punchbowl.
We're sharing a preview of Valley of Shadows, a new true crime podcast that digs into a nearly 30-year old secret buried in the California desert. On June 11, 1998, Los Angeles County Sheriff's Deputy Jon Aujay set out for a run in California's Devil's Punchbowl park, and never came back. Aujay has yet to be found. The Sheriff's Department rules Aujay's disappearance a suicide, but friends, family, and fellow deputies insist the story doesn't add up. Instead, they believe Aujay may have stumbled into the Mojave Desert's criminal underworld - where outlaw biker gangs crank out methamphetamine and local cops operate on both sides of the law. Through exclusive interviews, revealing wiretaps, and buried police files, journalists Hayley Fox and Betsy Shepherd explore one of Southern California's most mysterious missing person cases. In Valley of Shadows, they ask: What is the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department hiding? Find Valley of Shadows wherever you get podcasts.
