In the world of true crime, some cases continue to unfold with unexpected twists and turns, keeping us on the edge of our seats. In this week’s episode, we have updates on three high-profile missing persons cases that we’ve covered on previous episodes. From arrests to reunions and ongoing investigations, here's the latest on Michael Vaughan, Alicia Navarro, and Codi Bigsby.

Michael Vaughan's Disappearance

On July 27, 2021, 5-year-old Michael Vaughan went missing in Fruitland, Idaho, leading to a massive search. After over a year and a half, an arrest was made, with Sarah Wondra facing charges related to Michael's disappearance. However, the case took unexpected turns, including the dismissal of charges against Sarah Wondra. As of September 2023, the prosecutor is careful with potential charges, and the case remains active.

Alicia Navarro's Safe Return

Alicia Navarro disappeared from her Glendale, Arizona home in 2019, sparking fears of an online predator's involvement. In a surprising turn of events, Alicia was found safe in Havre, Montana, in July 2023, seeking to live life independently as an adult. However, the story took a dark turn with the arrest of Edmund "Eddie" Davis on child sex abuse charges. Alicia has been reunited with her family, but the investigation into Davis continues.

3. Codi Bigsby's Tragic Case

Four-year-old Codi Bigsby went missing in Hampton Roads, Virginia, in 2022. His father, Cory Bigsby, was later indicted for his murder, with disturbing details emerging during hearings. Cory, initially deemed unfit for trial, underwent restoration services and now faces charges related to his son's death. The trial, initially set for November 6, 2023, has been postponed to March 4, 2024, as the legal proceedings unfold.
