Summary
George Cecil David’s journey from Neah Bay to Port Angeles along Washington’s rugged coastline should have ended in a somber gathering just days later—family and friends coming together in remembrance. Instead, it became the beginning of a mystery that would remain unsolved for years. In March of 2016, renowned Indigenous artist and master carver George Cecil David was on his way to Vancouver Island to attend a funeral, stopping in Port Angeles along the way—but he never made it to his final destination. What followed was a complex investigation involving surveillance footage, missing evidence, and a timeline that raised more questions than answers. For years, his case remained unsolved. In this episode, we examine the life of a respected artist, the circumstances surrounding his death, and a case that would become a landmark moment for Washington’s Missing & Murdered Indigenous People (MMIWP) Cold Case Unit.
