About this episode
In June of 2019, a 19-year-old woman disappeared after leaving her home in Anchorage, Alaska with a few friends. But when she didn’t return, investigators began unraveling an unfathomable plot involving betrayal, manipulation, assault, and a group of friends concealing secrets from each other, including their true identities. What started as a missing persons case would quickly become one of Alaska’s most shocking recent murders, which began as a simple catfishing scheme. This is the murder of Cynthia Hoffman: Killed by a Catfish.
