Highway 484 - Caden Speight

About this episode

The episode discusses the mysterious case of Caden Speight, a teenager who went missing under alarming circumstances in Florida.

On September 25, 2025, a terrifying text message sent the state of Florida into a frenzy: "I need help being shot at... I'm hit." Seventeen-year-old Caden Speight’s truck was found abandoned in Dunnellon with a bullet hole in the windshield and blood in the cab. But as an Amber Alert pinged on millions of phones, Caden wasn't in a white van with four kidnappers. He was in the woods with a tent, a bicycle, and a .45-caliber pistol.
