In this episode we discuss the case of Molly Anne Frankamont, who vanished in 2013 after renting a room from Glenn Griggs. Despite Glenn's criminal past and Molly's fears, police were slow to act. Glenn's death during a police encounter in 2014 left the case unresolved. Molly’s family continues to seek justice and answers for Molly.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Sunnyvale Department of Public Safety at 408-730-7101.
