## Resource

On April 16, 2005, 59-year-old Centre County District Attorney Ray Gricar called in to work, took a scenic drive, and parked his Mini Cooper outside an antique mall in Lewisburg. Then, he vanished. No note, no signs of a struggle. Months later, his laptop turned up in the Susquehanna River, its hard drive missing, raising urgent questions about what secrets it may have held. Why would a respected, soon-to-retire prosecutor walk away from everything? If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow The Final Hours to never miss a case!
