In this interview, meet the founder, producer, creator, and host of The Vanished Podcast, Marissa Jones. The Vanished is a true crime podcast that explores the stories of those who have gone missing. Marissa Jones, our guest today, selects the cases she’ll explore, interviewing the loved ones who are still searching for answers, reviewing police case files, and even interviewing officers who worked on the cases and persons of interest in certain disappearances. Marissa is also a paralegal and a Mama. Listen in to hear why she’s interested in missing person cases, how the podcast has evolved over time, and how she got to New and Noteworthy on iTunes (Apple Podcasts).
