Summary

In May of 2008, an 18-year-old man vanished without a trace near his Colorado home. For years, his disappearance remained a mystery, until a grim discovery inside an abandoned cabin nearby changed everything. After his body was found under heavily suspicious circumstances, lodged upside down and inside a chimney, there were rumors of foul play, hushed accusations involving a violent local man, and questions that investigators still cannot fully answer. This is the story of Joshua Maddux.
