Show Notes

There’s something undeniably eerie about a parking lot. The rows of silent cars, or worse, the vast swaths of empty space. The distant echo of footsteps. The half-burnt yellow lights casting shadows across the gritty pavement. Parking lots are liminal spaces — they’re designed for movement, for transitioning from the safety of cars to the safety of places.


But for many - especially women - parking lots aren’t just transitional spaces. They’ve become cultural touchstones of heightened fear. Indeed, parking lots have become gendered terrains. Places where women and children are taken, where sex traffickers and kidnappers prowl, hunting for new victims.


In this episode, we examine the conspiracy theories surrounding parking lots and how they collide with reality. Because it was in a parking lot, under police protection even, where the final victim in this case was abducted on Dec. 16, 2023.
