Introducing: The Trail Went Cold; The Boys on the Tracks

August 23, 1987. Saline County Arkansas. 16-year old Don Henry and 17-year old Kevin Ives
head into the woods to do some late-night hunting, but never return. Hours later, the two boys are seen lying on some railroad tracks before they are run over by a cargo train and the medical
examiner concludes they had fallen asleep after smoking marijuana and their deaths were
accidental. However, Don and Kevin's families push for a new investigation, which uncovers
evidence that they were violently attacked before their bodies were placed on the tracks.
Throughout the years, a number of conspiracy theories emerge to suggest the boys were
murdered as part of a cover-up involving drug trafficking, but no one is ever charged with the
crime. "The Trail Went Cold" released a two-part episode about this convoluted story for their
five-year anniversary show.

Episode 116 Robert Gautsche

Robert Gautsche was a family man and successful corporate manager who had a lot going for him, but the pressures of his job caused him to spiral. He fell into addiction which cost him his career, marriage, and health. He was diagnosed with Wernicke-Korsakoff Syndrome (WKS); a debilitating disease that greatly affected his memory, and his prognosis was not good. Robert's brother Brad, who was Robert's power of attorney, placed Robert into the care of an assisted living facility in Castle Rock, CO with the understanding that his brother would be safe and could not slip away. But on February 4th, 2021, Robert managed to flee from the facility.

Searches were quickly conducted, but there was no sign of 58 year old Robert who has walked away with just the clothes on his back. There were possible sightings of Robert, but none of them led to him being found, and he remains missing today.

In this episode, we are joined by Robert's brother Brad who discusses the frustration and long lasting effects he has suffered after not being able to find his brother. We are also joined by Detective Kristen Tinsley of the Douglas County Sheriff's dept who discusses the investigation into Robert's disappearance.

Robert Gautsche is believed to have been last seen walking in the area of 5900 Promenade Parkway in Castle Rock. He was wearing a brown leather jacket, black jeans and light-colored slipper-style shoes.

Robert is a White male standing 6ft tall, and weighing 160 pounds. He has Brown hair and eyes.
