Bryce Laspisa: The 30-Hour Drive to Nowhere

from The Final Hours with Sarah Turney and Kourtney Nichole · host Crime House

In August 2013, 19-year-old college sophomore Bryce Laspisa gave away his most prized possessions, broke up with his girlfriend, and spent 30 hours driving aimlessly through California. He sat motionless in parking lots, for hours, before his SUV was found crashed and empty at the bottom of a 15-foot embankment near Castaic Lake. He had shattered the rear window from the inside, leaving behind his wallet, phone, and laptop, but no trace of himself. Was Bryce running from something he never got the chance to tell his parents?
