After meeting at a local deaf club, Lonene 'Lonnie' Ray Rogers and Clinton 'Buddy' Rogers quickly became an item. Unfortunately, Lonnie was unaware of Bud’s past criminal history when the two were married. Lonnie planned to leave Bud on the evening of January 7, 1981, but according to Bud, she left in the middle of a snowstorm and has never been seen again. Over 40 years later, her daughter Alison is working tirelessly to find justice for her mom.
Research by Haley Gray and Anna Luria.
Special thanks to Lonnie’s daughter Alison for sharing stories with us about her Mom and fact checking the episode.

In this episode, we are discussing the mysterious disappearance of Bob Wykel, a retired sheet metal worker from Washington with a passion for restoring classic cars. In February 1996, Bob went to check out a Ford Thunderbird he was interested in purchasing, but he never returned. The only person known to have been with him at the time was the man who helped facilitate the deal. Years later, this man was convicted of murdering Bob, but Bob’s body was never found.
