Episode 28 - Bocas del Toro Murders

Grip Tape
About this episode
Between 2007 and 2010, the Bocas del Toro province of Panama seemed to have become somewhat of a Bermuda Triangle for American ex-pats who had decided to take root in the Caribbean Coastal area. Within those 3 years, 5 Americans mysteriously vanished without a trace, leaving their family and friends desperately searching for answers.

This is a really special episode because we got to partner up with the host of Pretend Radio, Javier Leiva. Recently Javier covered a case he thought our listeners might find interesting and passed on his script and interviews with us.

Special Thanks to Javier Leiva Host of Pretend Radio
