Macin Smith
After having his electronics taken away, 17-year-old Macin Smith skipped school and never returned home. Five years and several sightings and mysterious notes later, the Smith family is seemingly no closer to answers than they were on September 1, 2015, when Macin walked out of their home. Did their son who had run away before simply decide he was done living by his parents' rules? Or did the teen's battle with depression overcome him? In the years that followed his disappearance, a terrifying third option emerged: had Macin been the victim of foul play?
