The Wig, the Rental Car, and the Missing Child – Inside the Melodee Buzzard Investigation

The Wig, the Rental Car, and the Missing Child – Inside the Melodee Buzzard Investigation

Nine-year-old Melodee Buzzard vanished after a mysterious three-day road trip with her mother, Ashlee Buzzard, in early October 2025. Surveillance footage shows Melodee wearing a dark wig and hoodie at a California car-rental counter on October 7. Ashlee rented a white Chevy Malibu (plate CA 9MNG101), drove more than 1,500 miles to Nebraska, and returned alone on October 10.

Four days later, on October 14, the Lompoc Unified School District reported the child’s prolonged absence. Deputies found Ashlee Buzzard at her home — but no Melodee. Officials say she has not provided a verifiable explanation and remains uncooperative. The FBI has joined the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office, classifying Melodee as an “at-risk missing child.”

In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, Tony examines the mounting evidence, the haunting disguise footage, and the public’s growing frustration that no arrest has been made. How can a mother drive across state lines with her child, return alone, and face no charges? Why hasn’t an AMBER Alert been issued? What does her silence tell investigators — and what does it hide?

Join Tony for a raw, in-depth breakdown of a case that exposes the gaps in our missing-child system. Hear how the FBI is tracing license-plate readers, cell-site data, and rental-car GPS logs to piece together Melodee’s final known route. This story isn’t about custody disputes — it’s about accountability, and a little girl who deserves to be found.

If you have information about Melodee Buzzard or Ashlee Buzzard’s travel between October 7 and 10, contact the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office (805-681-4150) or the FBI (1-800-CALL-FBI / tips.fbi.gov).

If you saw anything—any sighting of Ashlee Buzzard or a young girl between October 7 and October 10—call the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office at (805) 681-4150, or their anonymous line at (805) 681-4171, or the FBI at 1-800-CALL-FBI.

Because the truth is simple: silence protects no one. And until the silence breaks, Melodee Buzzard is still missing.

And that should haunt every single one of us.
