This episode covers the investigation into Spencer's disappearance, the role of his mother Kelly, and the challenges faced by Fresno PD.

Kelly advocates for her son Spencer when the police initially dismiss her concerns. She pushes back against their assumptions, leading to a formal investigation by Fresno PD.

Despite being six weeks behind and losing crucial evidence, Kelly provides a significant lead to the detectives. This lead originates from her own actions when she requested a welfare check on Spencer.

On July 31st, the landlord's response to Kelly's inquiry about Spencer raises further questions, as someone else was found in his apartment.

heard from him in days, which was unusual. So on July 31st, she had called his landlord and asked her to do a

00:00:44

welfare check. And the call that she got back on that same day was weird. The landlord said that she had checked
