 There are many podcast hosts who are adept at the intimate narrative storytelling that accompanies true-crime podcast tales. A new Spotify podcast, DISAPPEARANCES WITH SARAH TURNEY, goes one critical step further. The host of this podcast experienced the anguish of crime too up close and personal.

 

For Disappearances host Sarah Turney , crime is tragically too true.  In 2020, after years spent searching for answers, Sarah Turney used social media to help bring justice to her sister Alissa’s nearly two decades-long disappearance. Now she’s teaming up with Parcast to explore the many reasons people disappear and the impact their absences can have on those left behind. Disappearances is a Spotify Original from Parcast. Catch a new episode every Thursday, free on Spotify.

Exploring stories of those who wanted to disappear and others who had no choice, from abductions to murders, to runaways and second chances, Disappearances with Sarah Turney examines some of the most well-documented missing persons cases in history.

Spotify announced that the first episode of Disappearances will be released on Thursday, September 9th.

In the United States, on average a new missing person’s report is filed once every minute, each coming with its own unique story. Some of the cases explored in this season of Disappearances with Sarah Turney will include:

●      6-year-old Etan Patz, who disappeared off a street corner in New York while on his way to school and became the first missing child featured on the back of a milk carton.

●      A group of inmates who vanished after escaping the world’s highest security prison: Alcatraz.

●      The heir to one of the largest fortunes in the world - Michael C. Rockefeller - vanishes off the coast of New Guinea.

●      Australian prime minister Harold Holt, who stepped into the ocean and was never seen again.

 Additionally, in each episode listeners will be directed to Sarah Turney’s nonprofit organization Season of Justice, whose goal is to provide financial resources for both law enforcement and families in order to bring closure to those impacted by unsolved violent crimes. Each episode will encourage listeners to get help or to support anyone who is dealing with missing persons cases.
