Among The Missing

EchoSpace

On January 28, 2017, Elaine Park vanished without a trace.

Five days later, her car was found on Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu - keys in the ignition, lights still on, and all of her belongings inside.

The only thing missing, was Elaine.


Hosted by Troy Taylor, Among The Missing examines every detail of Elaine's case - evidence, timelines and testimonies - whilst also exploring the personal toll of chasing answers across years of investigation, from the other side of the globe.

Both a search for truth and a journey into the weight of obsession, the series shines a light on Elaine's disappearance, and the unanswered questions that still demand justice.

    12 | I Do Love You

    Troy dives into the private messages between Susan Park and her daughter Elaine - thousands of words exchanged in the months before Elaine vanished. Some are ordinary, some explosive, and some paint Susan as one of the most controversial figures in the case. But when the full conversations are finally placed back into context, a very different picture begins to emerge. Because when you strip away the headlines and the speculation, the question becomes unavoidable: were these messages evidence of something darker… or simply the messy reality of a complicated mother-daughter relationship?

As he revisits the moments that shaped public perception of Susan - from the infamous “die, die, die” texts to the unanswered questions that still linger - new context begins to emerge. But the deeper the timeline is explored, the more unsettling the central question becomes: is Susan Park one of the most misunderstood mothers in true crime… or something else entirely?
