[Music] Joshua Tree National Park is a very large and desolate area there's not a
00:00:23
lot of water in these areas and it gets very hot during the day and very cold at
00:00:28
night it's a beautiful area the Joshua trees are like something out of a dr. Seuss book
00:00:39
Aaron Corwin was a 19 year old pregnant marine wife on June 28 2014 Erin woke up
00:00:51
her husband John Corwin about 6:00 or 7:00 in the morning the initial story we received was Aaron had gone to Joshua
00:01:01
Tree National Park to look for nice hiking routes for her and her mother John called and he said Aaron's missing
00:01:13
and I'm like what do you mean Aaron's missing and my first thought is she's gotten lost erin has no sense of
00:01:21
direction I actually got a call from the base commander saying that he had sent out troops to help look for her and they
00:01:29
had found nothing it becomes very drastic at that point she's not very large and she's not gonna
00:01:34
last long out there [Music] there is a massive search-and-rescue to locate Aaron Corps when they searched in
00:01:50
temperatures that climbed as high as 110 115 the dogs were getting heatstroke they even encountered killer bees it was
00:02:01
a really grueling tough search you don't know what the monster is in the dark in
00:02:07
the closet out there I think a lot of people first became familiar with Joshua Tree National Park through the album
00:02:17
Joshua Tree by the Irish band u2 that came out in the 1980s and there's a song on that album called mothers of the
00:02:27
disappeared but the words really spoke with what I felt like Laura must have gone through
00:02:37
not knowing where her daughter was and out in the desert where the Joshua trees were she was out there somewhere it was
00:02:48
big news for such a small area everybody was talking about it people were looking
00:02:55
for her there was buzz on base we know that she is out there it's just a matter of us
00:03:02
trying to figure out exactly where John did tell me that he thought she'd taken a Gatorade which is nothing in those
00:03:17
situations he sounded concerned there wasn't a lot of emotion in his voice but John that's John there seemed to be
00:03:29
evidence that he liked to keep an eye on Aaron and make sure that he knew where she was you're not pointing fingers you
00:03:38
want to find where Aaron is you're questioning him of course when was the last time you saw her where did she say
00:03:45
she was gonna go does she have any friends Aaron was not the type of person who would just leave and not tell anyone her
00:03:56
husband was calling her her mother was calling her her friends were calling her and it went straight to voicemail that
00:04:03
was a sign that something was wrong when they handed me that car that said special investigative homicide team it
00:04:15
