Drowning Creek

In 2007, 18-year-old Justin Gaines left an Atlanta-area nightclub, got into a black car and disappeared. Seven years later, Dylan Glass told police he took part in Justin’s murder at an after-hours party and his mother helped clean it up. He was never charged and later recanted his statement.Over the years, tips about Justin’s fate and his whereabouts have led investigators to nothing but dead ends. Theories include a robbery, a jealous boyfriend, and a drug debt to the Mexican cartel. But podcast host Sean Kipe uncovered a promising lead: that Justin’s body was placed in a toolbox and submerged in Lake Lanier.  In the podcast “Drowning Creek” from Wavland, Kipe chases down witnesses, suspects, and possible motives for the disappearance of Justin Gaines. Along the way, he uncovers new clues that might be helpful to the investigation. Kipe also lands an exclusive interview with the man believed to have information that can break open the case.OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "DROWNING CREEK" BEGIN IN THE FINAL EIGHT MINUTES OF THE EPISODE.
