LeRyan Nicholson

Episode 62 LeRyan Nicholson

Eighteen year old LeRyan Nicholson went missing in Nashville, TN in April, 1998. After being told incorrectly that LeRyan was found and was safe at home, police called off the search for him. Unfortunately, that wasn't actually the case and LeRyan was still missing. The day after LeRyan was last seen, a body found wrapped up and set on fire was found in Nashville. It took years of searching by LeRyan's family before they learned that the body found the day after LeRyan went missing was actually his. Incredibly, LeRyan's sister Candace, using the NAMUS database, actually made the connection that solved part of the mystery. Candace discusses LeRyan's case, and her efforts to help get justice for him.
