Description

In this week’s episode, we dive into one of the most unsettling and complex cases we’ve ever covered — a story involving a missing mother, a wealthy family, an unsolved murder, and a son at the centre of it all.

When 54-year-old Linda Carman vanished during a fishing trip with her son Nathan in 2016, the incident was initially labeled a tragic accident at sea. But as investigators dug deeper, troubling inconsistencies emerged — linking her disappearance to a much earlier tragedy: the unsolved 2013 murder of Nathan’s grandfather, real-estate mogul John Chakalos.

Over time, Nathan Carman became the focus of a sprawling investigation involving inheritance disputes, family fractures, insurance battles, and federal criminal charges. But before the case could ever reach a courtroom, it ended in yet another unexpected twist.

This episode unpacks the full timeline, the evidence, the suspicions, and the questions that still remain.
