Derrick’s footprints led into the forest… and then simply stopped. No struggle. No trail. No remains. Despite massive search efforts involving local deputies, state police, search-and-rescue teams, dogs, helicopters, and decades of follow-up investigations, Derrick has never been found.In this episode, we walk through the timeline of Derrick’s disappearance, the eerie details and the baffling, even divisive theories.
