The Final Hours with Sarah Turney and Kourtney Nichole

The morning after Brandon Swanson disappeared, a bloodhound pressed its nose to his abandoned car and set off across the Minnesota farmland. The trail wandered for miles, plunged into the rushing Yellow Medicine River, and then, picked back up on the other side before ending at a gravel road. Some investigators believed Brandon had drowned, but his parents' doubted the theory. Eighteen years of searches have brought cadaver dogs, a bone that wasn't his, and a drought that finally emptied the river itself. But none of it has brought Brandon home.If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow The Final Hours to never miss a case! To hear episodes ad-free and released early, subscribe to Crime House+.

For more than three decades, the disappearance of Michaela "Kayla" Garecht drew false confessions, dead-end digs, and a parade of suspects. A lying jailhouse tipster, a convicted child killer, the notorious "Speed Freak Killers" and a well full of bones. Before finally, a partial palm print was pulled from Kayla's scooter. Each lead raised her family's hopes; each one broke their hearts. Decades after a stranger drove her away, a charge would finally name a suspect, even as a mother refused to stop searching for the truth about what happened to her daughter.If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow The Final Hours to never miss a case!

In the fall of 1992, 14-year-old Misty Copsey vanished after a night at the Puyallup Fair. For months the police wrote her off as a runaway until her clothes surfaced along Highway 410. Only then did the real investigation begin. Persons of interest drifted in and out of focus over the years, alongside polygraphs, false leads, and an amateur investigator whose obsession with the case may have done as much harm as good. Decades later, an unknown man's DNA is one of the only tangible traces left, yet no one has ever been charged in Misty's disappearance.If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow The Final Hours to never miss a case!

On September 13, 1992, 27-year-old Su Taraskiewicz left her overnight shift at Boston's Logan Airport to grab sandwiches for her crew and never made it home. The next day, her body was found in the trunk of her own car. As a ramp supervisor and one of the few women on a mostly male crew at Northwest Airlines, Su had spent months enduring a workplace that turned against her. There were taunts, sabotage, and threats she faced just for doing her job well. Eventually her mother uncovered something that reframed the case: a journal, where Su had documented the harassment page after page, naming the men who made her days a struggle.If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow The Final Hours to never miss a case!
