A late flight, a Lyft to Hatch Park, an online meetup... then silence.

After a late flight into Salt Lake City, Mackenzie Lueck messages that she has landed and takes a Lyft to Hatch Park in North Salt Lake to meet someone she knew online. Minutes after the drop-off, her phone activity stops.

This episode reconstructs the overnight timeline—texts, rideshare data, airport and neighborhood cameras—and follows detectives as they trace an online connection to Ayoola Ajayi. We cover the search, the purchase records, the backyard burn that drew attention, and the evidence that led to an arrest, told with care for Mackenzie and her family.
