The McStay Family Murders: Vanished Without a Trace

In 2010, the McStay family seemed to vanish into thin air. Joseph, Summer, and their two young sons disappeared from their California home without warning. Their car was found near the Mexican border, triggering wild speculation, had they fled the country? Had they met with foul play? For years, no one knew the truth.

Then, in 2013, a grim discovery in the Mojave Desert changed everything: the skeletal remains of all four family members, buried in shallow graves. The investigation took a shocking turn, exposing a disturbing betrayal and a motive rooted in jealousy and greed.

In this episode of Crime at Bedtime, we peel back the layers of one of California’s most haunting modern mysteries. Through meticulous police work, courtroom drama, and chilling revelations, we trace the story from the family’s last known movements to the arrest and trial of a man they once called a friend. This is a story of trust broken, lives stolen, and a search for justice that spanned years.
