More than four decades after DeS disappeared without a trace, his family finally receives the news they have been waiting for: his case is being prepared for the coroner. As police revisit the evidence, new questions emerge. Could unidentified human remains found near Newman be connected to Des? Will family DNA finally provide an answer? And what should be made of a disturbing account buried in the police file — a claim that Des may have been murdered after intervening to protect a young girl? For a family that has spent more than 40 years living with uncertainty, there is finally movement. But with every new piece of information comes another question about what really happened to Desmond Carr. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
