The High Desert in Southern California can be a dangerous place. It's not only a pit stop on the way to Las Vegas, but instead is home to a large population spread out over multiple cities. Recent years has seen crime escalate throughout the area, but it's a cluster of missing persons in a less than a two year period that caught my attention. This podcast will discuss these still open cases, and hopefully shed new light for the families.

    Episode 9: The Case of Jesus Rivera, Sr.

    Jesus River, Sr. went missing on March 11, 2019 while working on a job in the mountains in Southern California. He was working with someone he had known for some time in an area that he was unfamiliar with. When his family received a call letting them know that Jesus was missing, they were understandably concerned for his safety. What they didn't expect were several different stories regarding the events leading up to his disappearance, or the lack of support they would get from law enforcement. If anyone listening to this episode has information regarding the disappearance of Jesus Rivera, Sr, please feel free to message the Missing/Jesus Rivera Facebook page. You can message this podcast as well. https://www.facebook.com/JesusRiveraMissing/

    We continue this week to discuss the case of Krystie Stuart, missing from Apple Valley, CA on March 3, 2015 In this episode I focus on the discovery of Krystie's truck, the location and circumstances and where it was in relation to the discovery of her remains nearly four years later.

    The Disappearance and Death of Krystie Stuart

    On March 3, 2015 a 29-year-old woman by the name of Krystie Stuart went missing after a dental appointment in Apple Valley, California. This town is part of an area between Los Angeles and Las Vegas known as the High Desert. After nearly 4 years of going missing Krystie's partial remains were found in the north Apple Valley desert and positively identified. The area her remains were found in was only 2.5 miles from where her truck had been found just a few days after her disappearance, and was an area that had had previously heavily searched. This case has many unanswered questions, and it is our goal to share this story in hopes someone will come forward. This is part one of Krystie's story, and other cases will follow. This podcast is also available on iTunes and Spotify as well. https://tinyurl.com/missinginthedesertonspotify https://tinyurl.com/missinginthedesertitunes
