It was spring break on Florida’s Gulf Coast - sun, surf, and twenty-two college students crammed into a rental house along Panama City Beach. Among them was 21 year old Reny Jose, a student from Rice University with a bright future ahead of him.
But on the night of March 3, 2014, Reny stepped out into the evening and was never seen again. By the next morning, his friends reported him missing.
Most of his belongings were left neatly in his room. His phone and some clothing turned up in a nearby trash bin, and more clothing was scattered by the beach. Sixteen of the students who had traveled with him quickly packed up and left town. What really happened in those missing hours? Did Reny wander into the waves? Was he the victim of foul play? Or is there a darker truth hidden in the silence of his friends?
This is the story of a young man who vanished during spring break in one of America’s most infamous party towns - and the questions that have haunted his family, and investigators, for more than a decade.
Listen as we dive into Panama City Beach, the case of Reny Jose, and how to stay alive on vacation.
