Ahren Barnard - USA
In this episode we tell the baffling story of the disappearance of Ahren Benjamin Barnard. Ahren Benjamin Barnard, known as Benj to many, was 35 years old when he vanished from Boise, Idaho. Ahren was a born entrepreneur, having started his first business at the age of 21, an exotic fish store which he named Tanks A Lot. By the time he vanished, Ahren had worked as a DJ, a pawn broker and a gun salesman and was looking into starting a limousine business. On the night of December 4th, 2004, Ahren dropped off his son with the child's mother at the McDonalds on the corner of Cole Rd and Overland Rd in central Boise. He was never seen again. This episode hears from Ahren’s mother Vicki who has done everything she can to keep the search for her son alive for the past two decades. She walks us through the investigation into his disappearance, her initially contentious relationship with the police and how one shady figure in her son’s life in particular, may have far more to do with the case than he’s led the authorities to believe.
