Inhuman: A True Crime Podcast

Brianna Maitland was 17-years-old when she disappeared from Montgomery, Vermont on the night of March 19, 2004. After spending part of the day shopping with her mother, during which Brianna briefly became visibly shaken for unexplained reasons, she went to work her evening shift as a dishwasher at the Black Lantern Inn. She finished work around 11:20 p.m. and left alone in her car, telling coworkers she planned to go home and rest before working the next day. The following afternoon, Brianna’s green 1985 Oldsmobile was found abandoned along Route 118 near Richford, Vermont, backed into an old, vacant building. Brianna was not at the scene, and her personal belongings—including money, her ATM card, glasses, and medication—were left inside the vehicle, indicating she likely did not leave voluntarily. Brianna’s disappearance remains unsolved. Her family, particularly her father, Bruce Maitland, has continued to advocate for answers through private investigators, public awareness efforts, and the nonprofit Private Investigations for the Missing. Despite renewed attention, FBI involvement, and a standing reward for information, no definitive explanation for what happened to Brianna Maitland has ever been confirmed.

If you have any information concerning Brianna’s case, please contact the FBI's Toll-Free Tipline at 1-800-225-5324 or the Vermont State Police Tipline at 1-844-848-8477. You may also contact your local FBI office, or you can submit a tip online at tips.fbi.gov. The FBI is offering a reward of up to $40,000 for information leading to the recovery of Brianna.

Still one of Japan’s largest unsolved cases, the quadruple homicide of the Miyazawa family in Tokyo’s Setagaya neighborhood took place in the middle of the night on New Year’s Eve 2000. The murders of Mikio, Yasuko, Niina, and Rei Miyazawa remain unsolved despite a plethora of evidence being left behind by the killer, including blood, DNA, and fingerprints. There is still a 20-million-yen reward and the community and family remains hopeful that one day, the killer will be caught.

LeeAnna Susan Marie Warner was a 5-year-old girl from Chisholm, Minnesota who disappeared on June 14, 2003 while walking home from a friend’s house, just a block and a half from her home. She was last seen between 5:00 and 5:15 p.m. that afternoon, barefoot and wearing a blue denim dress. When LeeAnna didn’t return, her family and neighbors searched, and police were eventually called. Despite extensive efforts—including ground searches, bloodhounds, helicopters, and following more than a thousand leads—no definitive evidence of what happened has ever been found. Investigators believe she was likely abducted, but the case remains unsolved with no confirmed suspect. Over two decades later, authorities continue to treat LeeAnna’s case as an active investigation until she is found.

Joshua Bain is a 25-year-old man who was reported missing in November 2024 after his mother dropped him off near 641 W. Peachtree Street NW in Atlanta and he has not been seen or contacted since; Atlanta police and the Georgia Bureau of Investigation are actively seeking information on his whereabouts, and he was last seen wearing a black hoodie, black jeans, and black shoes. Tavis McAlmont disappeared much earlier — he was 23 when he was last seen inside the Highland Apartment Complex on Washington Road in East Point, Georgia on January 31, 2009, and was officially reported missing later that month; despite years passing and being listed as an unsolved missing person, there has been no confirmed resolution and authorities continue to treat his case as an active cold case. 

Anyone with information about Tavis's case is urged to call the Fairburn Police Department 770-683-4276 or the Georgia Bureau of Investigation at their Missing Persons Tip Line: 1-800-597-8477
