Episode 105: Nearly Unsolved: Byron Wright

The city of Arlington sits in the northern part of Snohomish County, Washington with a population of about 22,000. The airline Boeing was the area's biggest employer. Byron Wright worked through a hard childhood to earn a great job at Boeing. With this job, he was able to purchase a number of classic cars to fulfill his hobby. A seemingly quiet homebody Byron met the vivacious, outgoing Michele. The two quickly began dating and Byron had Michele and her daughter, Stacy move in on his property. The pair married in 2000 but after only 4 years of marriage, Byron vanished without a trace. According to Michele, Byron had run off with a younger, wealthy red head and didn't need anything or anyone from his past life. His family didn't believe he would do something like this, particularly leave his car collection behind. For almost a decade, no one had any contact with Byron or knowledge of where he went. It wasn't until a jail informant came forward did police and Byron's family learn the evil truth of his disappearance...and murder.
