Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In 2004, 14-year-old Max DeVries disappeared while on a family vacation in Aruba. What started as a relaxing trip took a tragic turn when Max went jet skiing with a man he had recently met at their resort—and never returned. Hours later, the man came back alone, injured and with a story that raised troubling questions.
Authorities ruled that Max was likely lost at sea, but inconsistencies in police statements and unanswered details have fueled doubt for years. In this episode, we break down the timeline of Max’s final day, the investigation that followed, and the lingering mystery that continues to haunt his family. Was it a tragic accident—or something far more sinister?
