In May 2006, 32-year-old Rey Rivera ran out of his Baltimore home after receiving a sudden, urgent phone call — and was never seen alive again. Six days later, his body was found in a locked, unused conference room at the historic Belvedere Hotel, discovered only because of a mysterious hole in the roof above him.
Police called it suicide. His family and friends called it impossible.
And almost everything about the scene — the trajectory, the injuries, the neatly placed belongings, and a cryptic note taped behind his computer — raised more questions than answers.
In this episode, we explore Rey’s life, the strange circumstances of his disappearance, the unsettling connections to his employer, and the theories that continue to divide investigators nearly two decades later.
