Summary

In 2003, a 16-year-old girl attended a concert in Albuquerque with her best friends expecting to have a fantastic night with their favorite artist. But after looking for help from a foot injury during the show, she seemingly vanished out of thin air. Days later, a devastating phone call came in to police with a horrifying explanation. This is the story of Marissa Mathy-Zvaifler.

0:00.0	What is going on True Crime fans, I'm your host Heath and I'm your other host Daphne
0:18.8	and you're listening to Going West.
0:21.3	This extremely devastating and important case was shared to us by Stephanie, who actually
0:26.0	helped make a documentary on this case with our friends back in 2003 as a project for
0:31.2	the College of Santa Fe.
0:33.8	It was really surreal to watch because it was done so close to when Marissa was killed
0:38.1	that you just feel like you were there.
0:40.4	So thank you so much to Stephanie for sending that over and suggesting Marissa's case.
0:44.7	Their documentary is called Educating Marissa and we linked it on all of our socials and
0:49.5	you can also find that in the description for this episode so go check out those posts
0:54.5	or you can search it on Vimeo.
0:56.9	And it's crazy because Stephanie suggested we reach out to Kai Porter for more details
1:01.6	and I didn't notice that she said that until this morning and Kai is a pretty big part
1:05.9	of this story since he was Marissa's good friend.
1:09.0	So it's weird because when we do research for these cases, I almost feel like I know
1:12.8	the people so seeing that Kai is now an investigative journalist and is on Instagram with such
1:19.2	a trip because he's in the documentary as a teenager.
1:22.9	So that just tripped me out a little to see him in present times and he and the rest of
1:27.6	Marissa's friends made such an important impact in this story and I really admire all
1:32.9	of them.
1:33.9	So thanks everyone for tuning in today and we hope this story touches all of your hearts
1:37.7	like it did ours.
