Episode 61 : Helen Brach

Summary“If it’s a kidnapping, I’d have a ransom note by now,” says private investigator Ernest Rizzo about the 1977 disappearance of candy heiress Helen Voorhees Brach. But despite his confidence that Helen Brach is still alive, no one has seen her. And as the days turn into months turn into years, it becomes more and more clear just how wrong Ernest Rizzo is about what happened to Helen. Join us on Patreon!
