In Today's episode, I dive into the mysterious 1987 disappearance of 16-year-old Theresa Bier in the remote Sierra Nevada mountains near Fresno, California. Accompanied by 43-year-old Russell Welch, a self-proclaimed Bigfoot hunter, Theresa vanished without a trace during an expedition in the wilderness. Welch was later arrested but never charged due to lack of evidence. What happened deep in those woods? Join me as I explore the strange circumstances, disturbing theories, and unanswered questions surrounding the Theresa Bier case—a mystery that still baffles investigators today.
Anyone with information about Theresa's disappearance is encouraged to call the Fresno Police Department at (559) 621-2541 The case number to reference is 8736264
