On December 13th, 1973, French Journalist Claude Vorilhon claimed to have met extraterrestrials named Elohim while walking along the Puy Lassolas mountain. The Elohim took him on his craft for 6 consecutive days and told him the truth about humanity: that there is no god, the Elohim created humankind in their image, and they wanted Claude to build an embassy for them when they arrived. He attracted a small following of sci-fi fans interested in joining his budding religious movement. Then, on October 7th 1975, the Elohim took him to their planet where they revealed that humanity was in the age of Apocalypse, that all previous prophets were alive through cloning on their planet, and that not only was Claude the brother of Jesus, but that he was the Messiah and was given a new name: Rael. What followed was nearly 40 years of growth, legal issues, jumping countries, and international hoaxes that kept the Raelian movement in the limelight.

Everybody who watched the news in 2005 knew about Natalee Holloway, the 18-year-old American girl who went to Aruba during a high school graduation trip. But few know about Max Devries, who went missing a year earlier while on a jet ski with a man the Devries family met on vacation. A quick investigation by the Aruban police found that Max was Lost at Sea in a tragic accident, but the family still believes there’s something more to his disappearance. In the years following, the Devries family made shocking discoveries into the pasts of the men who befriended them in Aruba, learning things that have made them consider if Max was targeted while on vacation, groomed, and eventually murdered. Was the Aruban government pressured to devise a quick answer to protect tourism, missing and were these strange men really who they said they were?

On April 15th, 1994, a group of young surfers discovered a gruesome sight – a young woman’s body had washed up near the San Diego shoreline. At first, it seemed clear that the mystery woman had been attacked and killed by a Great White Shark, but as time went on, the true nature of the woman’s death became less clear. Now, 30 years after she passed, we may finally have an answer to the question – “What happened to Michelle Von Emster?”

In March of 2019 25-year-old Aubrey Dameron was reported missing by her mother. Aubrey, who is a transgender woman, was never seen again. While her mother and ex seem unconcerned with her disappearance, those closer to Aubrey are convinced something terrible has happened to the woman. Years later and multiple murder confessions later, police are no closer to solving Aubrey’s case. Now, her family can only ask, “Where is Aubrey, and when will the truth of her demise come to the light?”

Benjaman Kyle’s life began on August 31st, 2004, when he was found naked and unconscious behind a Georgia Burger King. The man, who appeared to be at least 50 years old, had no memory of his life before the moment he was found. His bizarre case would become one of the most well-known instances of amnesia in the United States, if not the world, and the life he was forced to lead in the wake of his memory loss has led to many petitions and discussions regarding what the US Government could or should do with what they call, “an unidentified living person.” 20 years later, we are taking a look at Benjaman’s harrowing journey to find his true identity.

This week, we have Maura Murray’s sister, Julie, joining us. On the evening of February 9th, 2004, 21-year-old nursing student Maura Murray was driving eastbound on Route 112 in New Hampshire when she lost control of her car and slid off the road. Maura mysteriously disappeared and has been missing ever since. There has unfortunately been tons of misinformation spread about this case throughout the years, and Julie is here to set the record straight and discuss the events leading up to Maura’s strange disappearance.
