The Disappearance of Jeremy Walden

We're investigating the disappearance of Jeremy Walden.

In October 2020, Jeremy was due to meet four friends for a hike near Bellingham. He was twenty-two, a student at Western Washington University. He never showed, and no one could reach him. His phone was found later, broken. Jeremy wasn't. Nearly six years on, the case is still cold.

We'll post what we find here as we go: the case files, the people we talk to, the questions we still can't answer. And we'd like your help. Join the live discussions in the Investigation Room, compare notes, and see what turns up.

The case is open. Follow it as it happens.
