    BONUS: Secrets Beyond the Sacramento River // Episode 1: Send Recovery

    Introducing the new long form investigative podcast from the team behind Missing in Hush Town, Secrets Beyond the Sacramento River. Subscribe now wherever you get podcasts and catch new episodes each Monday. Apple Podcast Link Spotify Podcast Link  Episode 1: Send Recovery On September 9th, 2023, at 9:45 PM, a 911 call was made. A witness reported a white sedan sitting on River Road in the Sacramento Delta. Moments later, that same car began to move—rolling slowly from a stop, turning down an embankment, and disappearing into the Sacramento River. Emergency response was called. But what happened next, doesn’t make sense. Within hours, the call was downgraded. Medical was cancelled. No confirmed search took place the following day. Two days later, a dive team finally located the vehicle. Four days later, Jeff Anderson was pulled from the bottom of the river—just 500 feet from where the car entered the water. His car was: -upside down - in park. Keys in his pocket. His body in the back seat. His phone was never recovered. And in the months after his death—someone attempted to access his accounts. Authorities ruled it an accident. We disagree.  In this first chapter of Secrets Beyond the Sacramento River, we walk you through the night Jeff Anderson lost his life—using dispatch calls, witness statements, and official reports—to uncover one question: What happened to Jeff Anderson? Subscribe wherver you get podcasts.  Hosts Jen Rivera & Jules Thorp  Produced in cooperation with Jeff Anderson's family. A proud Fire Eyes Media LLC network podcast.
