Brandon Swanson: The Call That Ended in Silence

About this episode

Just before 2 a.m. on May 14, 2008, 19-year-old Brandon Swanson called his parents from a gravel road in southwestern Minnesota. His car was stuck in a ditch and he needed a ride. His parents drove out to find him but they were actually 25 miles apart. Forty-seven minutes into the call with his father, Brandon said two words and the line went silent. Brandon was never found. This week, Kaelyn is joined by Sabrina Deana-Roga and Alexis Linkletter, hosts of Crimes Of Reddit, to unpack the night Brandon Swanson walked into the dark.
