About this listen

In the summer of 2002, a 55 ft. catamaran pulled into a harbor in Tahiti. It was carrying only 1 on the 4 individuals who had embarked on the journey.

The missing included 35-year-old Bison Dele, formerly known as Brian Williams, - one of the highest payed NBA players of the time - and it took months for anyone to realize he was missing.

This week on Travels by Carriage we explore the curious mystery of the disappearance of Bison Dele.
