S3E4: Joliet

Detectives leave Elgin and head southwest to Joliet, Illinois — chasing one of their strongest theories in the search for missing woman Wyteria Jones. Could she have quietly slipped away to another city in 1982? The detectives trace every route she might have taken — Greyhound, Trailways, RTA buses, commuter trains — uncovering just how complicated that journey would have been. Then, when they go looking for the hotel a witness said Wyteria was headed to, they hit a wall. The "Joliet Motor Lodge" doesn't exist. But what they find in its place is a connection that changes everything. Along the way, they shine a light on other long-forgotten Will County disappearances, reminding us that every missing person leaves behind a family still waiting for answers.
