57: Ryan Borgwardt: Green Lake, Wisconsin

This week’s episode takes a wild turn into the unbelievable.  Our missing person didn’t just vanish - he faked his own death, traveled halfway around the globe, and ultimately got caught. It all started when Ryan Borgwardt told his family he was going kayaking.  When he didn’t return, his wife reported him missing. Authorities found his overturned kayak and life preserver, shifting the mission from a rescue to a recovery.   But after an exhaustive search, no trace of Ryan’s body turned up in the lake. If he wasn’t in the water… where was Ryan Borgwardt? Get ready, because today’s episode feels like it’s ripped straight from the script of a Hollywood thriller. Listen as we dive into Wisconsin, the case of Ryan Borgwardt, and how to stay alive on vacation.
