Lost at Sea? | The Cases of Missing Abigail Bernstein (& her children) & Sarm Heslop

Timestamps

(7:00) - Lost at Sea

Data indicates that over 3,000 people are reported missing at sea, each year.

In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast, we discuss two separate disappearances where the people involved have vanished without a trace after allegedly boarding boats.

Abigail Bernstein and her two young sons, Koa Kai and Kush, were last seen in October 2022 at the Ala Wai Yacht Harbor on Oahu, Hawaii. They were allegedly boarding a boat for a long voyage. The boat’s captain would return one year later and say that Abigail and the children left the boat because they were seasick. No trace of the family has been found. Did something happen during the voyage or has Abigail taken the children and gone off the grid?

British woman Sarm Heslop and her American boyfriend Ryan Bane lived on Ryan’s boat ‘Siren Song’ in the US Virgin Islands in 2021. Ryan has said that one night in March that year, he was awoken in the early morning hours by the anchor alarm. When he got up, Sarm was nowhere to be seen. Ryan waited 9 hours before calling police. He has reportedly refused to let authorities search ‘Siren Song’ and he has since sold the vessel and returned to the United States.
