***LIVE*** Molly Bish 13 minutes to murder

Locating the Lost

In the summer of 2000, a 16-year-old named Molly Anne Bish, born on August 2, 1983, took on the role of a lifeguard at Comins Pond in Warren, Massachusetts. On June 26, the day preceding her mysterious disappearance, her mother, Magi, noticed a man with a mustache sitting in a white car parked in the beach lot where Molly was stationed. Although the man raised her suspicions at the time, Magi did not dwell on the encounter until after her daughter went missing. The following day, June 27, Magi dropped Molly off at the lifeguard station, but she did not see the suspicious man or his vehicle. However, another witness reported spotting a man who matched the earlier description in the parking lot just moments before Molly arrived. Additionally, a local worker claimed to have seen a similar white car parked at a nearby cemetery, which was accessible via a path leading to the pond. Tragically, Magi Bish was the last person known to have seen her daughter before she vanished. Hours later, police informed the Bish family that no lifeguard had been present at the station throughout the day, and Molly's belongings were found abandoned. An extensive search effort was promptly initiated, marking it as the largest and most costly search for a missing person in Massachusetts history. Molly's case gained national attention, featuring on several prominent television programs such as Disappeared, America's Most Wanted, Unsolved Mysteries, and 48 Hours. In late fall 2002, a hunter discovered a blue bathing suit in the woods of Whiskey Hill in Palmer and reported it to the authorities in May 2003. This led to a focused search of the area, resulting in the tragic discovery of Molly Bish's body on June 9, 2003, approximately five miles from her family home. While the cause of death was never conclusively determined, investigators suspect foul play, believing that she was murdered and her remains concealed. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/locatingthelost/support
