Bonus: Victor "J.R." Shoemaker, Jr (2021)

This is the first case we ever covered, and we've re-recorded the story for our one-year podcast anniversary. J.R. was only 5 when he went missing while playing with his older cousins on Short Mountain in West Virginia. It was a place he had spent many happy days before, but on May 1, 1994, something happened. Despite an immediate and extensive search effort, not a single trace of the boy was ever found. His older cousins swore that they had no idea what happened to J.R., but now, 27 years later, there are still more questions than answers in this case, and J.R.'s disappearance has ripped an entire family apart.Find us everywhere: linktr.ee/attwgpodSupport us on Patreon: patreon.com/attwgpodSources: CHILD'S DISAPPEARANCE STILL BAFFLES AUTHORITIES A CHILD VANISHES, AND STILL, NO ANSWERS Lost in a Forbidding Forest Victor Dwight Shoemaker Jr has been missing for 20 years in unsolved mystery Victor Dewight Shoemaker Jr. – The Charley Project--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/andthentheyweregone/messageSupport this podcast: https://anchor.fm/andthentheyweregone/supportSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/attwgpod)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/and-then-they-were-gone--5360779/support.
