About this listen
October 7, 2025. A 9-year-old girl in pigtails and a cheap costume wig walks into a California rental-car lot holding her mother’s hand.They drive away in a white Chevy Malibu for what looks like a mother-daughter adventure.Four days and 3,018 miles later, the mother returns alone.The wigs are gone. The little girl is gone.And Melodee Buzzard has never been seen again.In this full-length episode we walk the entire timeline — mile by mile, toll booth by toll booth — from the wig purchase to the plate swap in a Utah junkyard, the last confirmed sighting at a Nebraska gas station, and the bombshell court hearing just 24 hours ago that saw every charge against Melodee’s mother suddenly dismissed.We lay out the five theories the internet can’t stop talking about, read the headlines that went viral, and ask the questions no one else will say out loud.45 days missing as of today, November 21, 2025.The search is still active. The mother is now completely free and silent.And somewhere out there, a unicorn backpack is still waiting.If you have any information, call 1-800-CALL-FBI.Timestamps00:00 – Cold Open02:50 – The Timeline Begins48:00 – The Five Theories52:00 – Where the Case Stands Today
