EP 73 | Missing Person Stories, Scams & Support with Nina Innsted of Already Gone podcast

A true crime collaboration with the insightful and kind, Nina Innsted, creator and host of the Already Gone podcast. Together we explore the intricate world of missing persons cases, the truth about the rise of disturbing social media scams exploiting missing persons, grim realities faced by families of missing and murdered loved ones, and the critical need to strengthen resources and data to tell the whole story. Nina covers The Great Lakes region on Already Gone so, as I do, I learned a bit about the area and, well, it is incredible (you can find me rabbit holing about the phenomenon of Great Lakes' shipwrecks).As October marks Domestic Violence Awareness Month, our conversation takes a close look at the intersection of domestic violence and missing persons and the risks involved for people who are fleeing abusive situations and the need for discretion to protect them and their escape. We discuss the unique challenges for individuals leading non-traditional lifestyles, who are most vulnerable. We share important resources for anyone who may experience a missing person in their family or circle. With contributions from fellow podcasters and advocates, this episode is a compelling call to action for greater understanding and support in missing persons cases.
