Update: Orrin and Orson West
4-year-old Orrin and 3-year-old Orson West were reported missing on December 21, 2020 by their adoptive parents, Trezell and Jacqueline West. Trezell told police that the boys wandered out of their California City, California backyard while he was gathering firewood. Multiple searches were performed, but no trace of the boys were found. As authorities dug deeper, questions began to arise as to whether or not the boys had ever even set foot in California City at all. Now, over a year after they were last seen, Trezell and Jacqueline have been arrested for their murders.
In this episode, we talk about the arrest, go over the indictment and discuss what we've learned so far. After the update, you can listen to our original episode on Orrin and Orson's disappearance to get the full story and timeline.
