For our farewell episode, we discuss why we decided to end Zion's Lost after 3 years and over 150 episodes. We share some memorable experiences we have had and episodes that still keep us up at night. We also talk about a few cases we wish we could have covered, but couldn't due to privacy reasons.
We appreciate your loyalty and support of our podcast. We are very thankful to have had such kind listeners who care about the cases and victims as much as we do. We hope that we have succeeded in bringing awareness to cold cases, missing persons, and victims of violent crime.
In 1989, a successful mother and social worker, Annette Hill, left her home at about 8pm, never to return. A robbery and murder gone wrong led to police to some of her belongings, but the suspect was never charged with any crime relating to her disappearance. However, that would all change in 2011 when another cold case from 1989 was reopened, and evidence was retested.

It’s what fun is! Utah’s family-owned amusement park, Lagoon, has an interesting history dating back to 1886. Lagoon has hosted famous bands, has original wood-carved animals on the carousel, and the infamous ‘White Roller Coaster’ just celebrated its 100th birthday. But with all the rides, games, and cotton candy, comes a few deaths and injuries.

In 1896, human bones and teeth were found inside a church furnace in Salt Lake City. When the reverend, Francis Hermans, could not be located, police suspected him from the start. However, when the details of his life and his history of wives disappearing or suddenly dying, the story got more scandalous and hit the newspapers not only in the U.S, but internationally as well. Even though his face was all over the papers, Reverend Hermans has escaped capture for over a century.

This week we explore two missing persons cases that are not connected, but involve endangered and at-risk individuals. At 19 years old, Timothy Scott Parry walked out of his house, never to be seen again. In 2001, 68 year old Johnnie Mae left her sisters home to go to the grocery store. Her unoccupied vehicle was found about 100 miles away from her home. Although a couple ranchers saw her wandering the desert, Johnnie was never located.

After breaking things off with Melvin Rowland, Lauren McCluskey couldn’t escape her abuser and stalker. He used spoof phones to call and harass her, looked into her windows at night, tried to lure her out of her apartment, and he even blackmailed her for $1,000. She took her concerns to the UofU campus police who dismissed her worries and violated her trust in the most disrespectful and disgusting way.

Ella Young was a wife and mother of 2, including a 4 month old baby boy. She loved hiking in Hobble Creek Canyon with her husband and their sons. When she left on September morning in 1953 to go get a can of corn for their supper that night, she never returned home. Her family was worried and started looking at the place she loved the most, Hobble Creek Canyon. There, they found her car abandoned with her shoes in it. Did Ella leave voluntarily to start a new life? Or was she unknowingly suffering from postpartum depression?

On July 4th, 1975, Nancy was working her shift at the Fina gas station on Highway 89 in East Layton. Her supervisor arrived to take over at 5:30pm, but Nancy was nowhere to be found. There were no signs of a struggle, and all of Nancy’s belongings were left undisturbed. She was thought to be a Ted Bundy victim, but he adamantly denies involvement and there isn’t any evidence linking her to him. Is Bundy to blame for her disappearance? Or a local that Nancy was familiar with?

The mystery of D.B Cooper is one of the most intriguing unsolved mysteries in the world. But what many don't know, is that in April of 1972, just 6 months later, Richard McCoy Jr. from Provo hijacked a plane from Denver. He demanded 4 parachutes and $500,0000.

In 1994, the owner of The Blarney Stone Bar in St. George was found slumped over his bar with a gunshot wound to his head. Witnesses recall him speaking to an old friend of his, who skipped town shortly after his murder. After police caught up to him, they had their suspect right away, although many people were not so sure. Was there enough evidence in the preliminary trial to move forward with a murder trial?

On July 4th 1956, a family was celebrating the holiday near Widstoe, UT. Vilate, who was just 15 months old, wandered off and disappeared. After searching extensively for days, it was determined that she was most likely kidnapped. They did not find any of her clothing, or her beloved teddy bear. Was Vilate kidnapped or did she succumb to the injuries of a wildlife attack?

In the early 2000s, three women seemingly walked away from their homes, never to be seen again. Two of the women had boyfriends in prison who had connections to the same man, Scott Kimball. The other missing girl, happened to be Scott Kimballs step-daughter. Once families started comparing stories, it was discovered that Scott Kimball was the missing link in all the disappearances. But would the FBI believe at their long-time informant was to blame?

In the summer of 1955, Jocelyn Hickenlooper was ready to celebrate her 23rd birthday. Just the day before, she was seen walking away from her home with two unknown people. Her body would be discovered in Parley's Canyon 16 days later. A developmentally delayed acquaintance of hers was questioned by detectives until he confessed. Although there was no evidence linking this man to her murder, he was confined to The State Hospital for the Insane. Shortly after, Jocelyn's case was closed and her real killer has never been identified.

In November 1987, Korrina Sagers was reported missing after not arriving for work. Her husband Steve insisted she left voluntarily. Less than one year later, her 11 year old daughter was seen waiting at the bus stop, but was never picked up by her school bus. A note left at the scene suggested that Korrina came back for Annette. However, the mother and daughter have never been seen or heard from since.

Amy did not survive her injuries, but the other eyewitnesses at the scene identified her killer - a man jailed in Illinois for rape and robbery.

In the late 1880's, John Hyrum Koyle had a dream that a local mine was full of treasure to assist the LDS church in times of crisis. Koyle had a history of his dreams coming true in his waking life, and others believed this to be true as well. After selling thousands of shares to dig in the mine, nothing of value was found. Is there still unearthed treasure in Salem or was it a hoax?

Anthony Adams was ahead of his time in the late 70s in Salt Lake City. Being a gay, African American socialist in the community was not easy, but he thrived being a voice and bringing awareness to the causes he was passionate about. When Anthony failed to show up for a protest he was expected to attend, his boyfriend went to his home, finding him brutally murdered. Who would want Anthony dead and why? Was it a crime of passion? A political assassination? Or a robbery gone wrong?

On a summer evening in 1981, Buddy Conti, the owner of Kearns Drug, and a co-worker were closing up and getting ready to head home for the night when an armed robber came looking for cash and drugs. However, Buddy wouldn't make it home alive to his family that night. After a weak confession, several fingers pointed towards a known robber, and a questionable suicide, police abruptly closed the case after their only suspect died of natural causes, leaving Buddy's family with no answers - and no justice.

Michelle's nude body was discovered floating off Sunset Cliffs in San Diego. With one of her legs missing and the other oddly shaped like a question mark, it was deduced that a Great White Shark attacked her. But once her death was looked at more closely, her cause of death wasn't as cut and dry and initially thought.
In August of 1978 in downtown Salt Lake City, a mother was seen throwing her 7 children over the railing of an 11th floor hotel room, before jumping to her own death. What - or who - could persuade a mother to commit such a tragic and violent act?

When the nude body of a young female was found brutally raped and murdered, police only had a vague description of possible vehicles that eyewitnesses remember Johanna last being seen in.

Jonathan was a 21 year old biology student at BYU with a bright future ahead. So when his roommates woke up to find suicide notes addressed to several different people, his bank account showing no activity, and his ID and passport being left behind, it seemed pretty cut and dry. However, when investigators interviewed those closest to Jonathan, another theory emerged. Did Jonathan fake his own disappearance and death?
