00:00:00
That stops being a plausible theory in 2013. Because that's when the entire family is
00:00:06
actually found, not too far from where their abandoned truck stood four years earlier. On November 16th, 2013, this is
00:00:16
four years after the Jamesons disappeared, a man named Tim Graham is with his wife and family on their annual
00:00:23
hunting trip to the mountain. They're just looking for signs of deer when Tim sees something strange in the brush,
00:00:30
about like 50 yards away from a gravel road. It looks like a turtle shell at first. I mean, it's weathered,
00:00:37
discolored, and a little stuck to the ground. But when he picks it up, he realizes
00:00:43
that it is a skull. And there is a small hole near the forehead. Now, Tim immediately puts it down and
00:00:50
yells to his wife, but then he sees another one, like a slightly smaller one. And then as the family is trying to
00:00:56
get out of there and to go tell someone what they found, Tim's wife spots a third, really small skull with two front
00:01:04
teeth missing. And her mind immediately goes to the Jamesons because she remembers seeing missing persons posters
00:01:11
for the family. Madison's toothless grin is seared in her brain. >> [music] >> And in that moment, she says to her
00:01:18
husband, "Oh my goodness, I believe we just found that family that was missing."
00:01:24
And she was right. Now, there wasn't much left out there, just an arm and a leg bone, a leg boot, scraps of another
00:01:31
boot, and a child's shoe, but nothing else. No briefcase, no gun. And after about seven months of
00:01:40
analysis, in June 2014, they're able to confirm that they found the entire family just 2.6 [music]
00:01:48
miles from where their truck was found. >> Uh, like 2.6, like 2 and 1/2 miles away.
00:01:54
>> That's it. Which like, I know this sounds like nothing to us like flat-landed folk who like live in the
00:02:00
Midwest. I can see 5 miles for ages. Fields and fields. But Beecham said that to go from where their truck was found
00:02:07
to where their skulls were recovered, like as the crow flies, it would take like a half day for someone who is in
00:02:14
great shape to hike. Which makes this location all the more strange because Bobby was not in great shape. He had
00:02:21
chronic back pain. And I don't know if you've tried hiking with a 6-year-old recently, but like in this area that
00:02:27
would slow you way down. Most people don't think there is any way that they got to that location on their own. And
00:02:34
this completely nixes the murder-suicide theory. Like it has to be foul play. But
00:02:40
for some reason, it like it doesn't for some people.
