Hey everybody welcome back to Colcase Murder Mysteries.

I'm your host Ryan Kraus inviting you into this museum of the Macabre once again as we

tore the fascinating narrative of Amy Lynn Bradley, a 23-year-old woman from Chesterfield, Virginia,

who disappeared during a cruise at sea with her family in March

1998.

As a passenger on Royal Caribbean's Rhapsody of the Sea, a luxury boat that had only been in service one year, Amy is generally

considered to have suffered one of two fates, with either seeming just as likely.

So what we endeavor to do here is the following.

Figure out if Amy Bradley went overboard as the result of an accident or fell victim to foul play. of course there is also a third possibility which is that this was a

suicide and we'll explore that avenue too. In the meantime, I think the truth lies not in the physical evidence

something supported by nearly a quarter century without answers,

but in her volatile emotional life. In the fall of 1997, Amy's father Ron, who works

for an insurance company, receives a free family vacation, specifically a cruise, that will accommodate four people.

The ship is going to set sail in March of the next year from Puerto Rico.

And like the majority of cruise lines in the region,

it will tour multiple Caribbean islands,

or Caribbean islands,

how do we actually say that, in a loop

before returning to port

Ron mostly receives a lot of enthusiasm from the family about the trip

as they tend to be a close-knit group

but there's one person in the family who's really anxious about it.
