Nowhere to Be Found: What Happened to Bryce Laspisa?

More Confusing Evidence

Police immediately began scanning the area with helicopters, divers in the lake, searches on foot; every possible method was used to track the boy down. Yet they came up empty-handed. The only thing they managed to get their hands on were two photos that somehow confused the case even more.

A surveillance camera in the area snapped two pictures of Bryce’s car going up the hill towards the lake. One at 2:15 a.m., just six minutes after he told his mom he was getting off the interstate to rest. So, for a moment there, police assumed he drove up to take a nap, just like he said.

But the second picture proved them wrong.
