  61. Excerpt

Chrissy’s voice came over the radio. “The pain Candace suffered is evident on every page of her journal that last year of college. It hurts that she didn’t come to me, talk to me, that she put me on a pedestal and thought I would think less of her. I have never been so proud of Candace as I am today.”

Lucas continued. “Candace wanted to come clean. But her friends did not. The argument I talked about in previous episodes is only partly accurate.

“Joseph Abernathy did walk on campus the night of the Spring Fling three years ago. Candace did confront him and ask him to leave. There had been multiple complaints about the homeless man, and Taylor James did want to call the police, something Candace was opposed to.

“But their argument wasn’t about Abernathy, not that night. Candace wanted Taylor and Kimberly Foster, an alumna, to join her in going to the police. And according to Candace’s journal, Rachel Wagner convinced them not to. So Candace took it upon herself to look for Adele’s body, based on limited evidence.

“You, the listeners to my podcast, helped us piece together what Candace did during the time she was missing.

“The brave sorority sister who faced expulsion because she called in and said she saw Candace on Sunday night, driving into the Mountain View parking lot.

“The student who called, telling us that she saw Candace exiting the library early Tuesday morning, and the male student who called stating that he saw her late Monday night in the library. Because of that information, Regan Merritt and I were able to locate Candace’s journal, which gave us valuable information about what really happened to her.

“Candace spent the night in the library. You might think that would be difficult, but security cameras only capture part of the interior. You can be locked in the library, as long as you don’t attempt to use any of the exterior doors. We found her journal, hidden in a hollowed-out book, on the third floor near a study room where she could have easily spent the night.

“But the most valuable piece of information came from a sorority sister who has agreed to come forward. Nicole Bergamo nearly died because of the information she shared on this podcast.”
