About this episode
In October 2021, the owner of a beloved dive bar in Everett, Washington is arrested on multiple counts of sexual assault, sending shockwaves through the tight-knit group of patrons that once considered the establishment a second home. As more survivors come forward, investigators uncover a decades-long pattern of abuse, allegations of drugged drinks, child sexual abuse material, and a growing list of victims that transforms a local gathering place into the center of one of the region's most disturbing criminal cases. In episode 413, Jac and Alexis examine the crimes of Christian Sayre, the community that unknowingly surrounded a serial predator, and how a place that held joyful memories for so many became the site of unimaginable trauma for others.
