When a small-town Colorado man vanishes in the middle of his work day, no trace of him is found until his vehicle is pulled from a local river six weeks later. Virtually certain that foul play was involved, investigators attempt to determine who might’ve wanted to harm a well-liked family-man in this episode of Last Seen Alive.
OCTOBER 2024 UPDATE: Investigators have charged a man with First Degree Murder in relation to the 1999 disappearance of Colorado family man Dale Williams. The suspect is now 68-year-old Dan Bishop, who was the estranged husband of a woman who Dale and his wife had aided in escaping an unhealthy marriage. Investigators from the Colorado Bureau of Investigation and the Montrose County Sheriff’s Office say that a cousin of Bishop’s aided him in the murder but cannot be charged for his alleged role in the crime because he’s deceased.
