OK, and Larry Woodcock hadn't seen or heard from their grandson, J.J. in months. We had no idea what was going on.

Nothing. We know nothing.

It was worse, J.J. Worse. J.J., worse. J.J., where was he called the police. I asked them to do a welfare check or anything about police department.

Are you? This is a big mess. I just talked to the guy.

So JJ would be where and where was his sister, Tyler?

Her car floating in the ball blue.

And why the day after did their mother, Laurie, disappear into thin air?

That's when we got involved.

They were in danger.

And she said that it was made known to her by the Lord that her family would not make it because of the tribulations that were going to come crazy. And the world stuff will make people behave differently. That's true. Fair. Hang on. It's going to be a wild ride here on behalf of Mr..

She entered a not guilty plea to both charges from the people who brought you the thing about Pam. I'm Keith Morris and this is Dateline, NBC's newest podcast, Mummie Doomsday. My siblings are gone.
