Episode 2: An Unreasonable Act | Valley of Shadows

from Lost Hills: Dark Canyon · host Western Sound and Pushkin Industries

After deputy Jon Aujay disappears, the sheriff’s department claims he was suicidal — pointing to marital troubles and erratic behavior in the weeks before he vanished. But the LASD’s official story doesn’t square with what Aujay’s loved ones and colleagues remember. Then, investigators start to hear rumors that the deputy didn’t take his own life, but was murdered for something he witnessed out in the desert.  Hear the full Valley of Shadows soundtrack on Spotify.
