• 1:27
  Speaker 1: I am the substitute teacher for today, aren't it. Well,
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: let's go ahead and get right into our first case,
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: shall we. This case is about Jonathan Wong, a twenty
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: two year old from Arlington, Washington, whose disappearance has left
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: his family devastated and desperate for answers. We'll walk through
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: who Jonathan is, the night he went missing, the search efforts,
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: the confirmed sightings, and what we can all do to
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: help bring him home. See, Jonathan isn't just a missing person.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: He's a son, a brother, and a young man with
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: a big heart and simple joys. He loves food and
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: drink places like Red Robin, Buffalo wild Wings, Olive Garden,
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: and Starbucks. He's known for root beer floats, banana shakes,
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: Lotus drinks, Italian sodas, and snacks of all kinds. Me too, Jonathan,
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: I love snacks as well. When asked what he wanted
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: for Christmas or birthdays, Jonathan often said, I'm grateful for
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: what I have so nice at home. Jonathan enjoys playing
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: video playing games on his iPad like Minecraft, Mario Kart,
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: Smash Brothers, Zelda, and cuddling his Perry, the Platypus pillow pet.
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: He has a qirky love of cryptids like Bigfoot and
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: modern folklore like Crampis or Slenderman. He reads Captain Underpain
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: and Diary of a Wimpy Kid and loves silly middle
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: school humor. He also adores his Yorky lady and often
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: said I think lady needs some attention now. Jonathan is
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: autistic and he prefers quiet, cozy spaces, and his social
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: world is small. His family, teachers, neighbors, and classmates in
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: his transitions program. He's very trusting and respectful and sees
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: adults as authority figures. He's also a creature of habit
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: who took the same daily neighborhood walk, crossing the street
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: in the same way every time. When he's anxious, Jonathan paces,
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: rocks or hunts a soft m He struggles with problem
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: solving and can shut down under stress, and is unlikely
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: to advocate for himself or tells someone he has lost.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: He may, however, ask for food, water, or a restroom.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: Now Jonathan is recognizable. He has a large mole on
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: his right forearm, two on the left side of his face,
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: a bit of a hunched posture, and sometimes will walk
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: with his hands behind his back or forward with bent
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: arms and clenched fist. His jackets were his comfort. He
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: wore them year round with the hood up like a
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: security blanket. Now. On Sunday, March thirtieth, twenty twenty five,
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: Jonathan said good night to his father around seven thirty
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: PM at their Arlington home. By six point forty the
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: next morning, when his mother went to wake him for school,
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: he was gone. He left without his jackets, wallet, phone, money,
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: or medications. All that was missing was his iPad and
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: a pair of wired ears. For Jonathan, who never took
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: his iPad outside except for a long car ride or
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: plane trips, this was a major red flag. His family
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: believes he didn't intend to be gone long, or that
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: he was coursed outside by someone he trusted. For Jonathan
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: leaving at night alone and without his jacket was a
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: massive break from routine. His family insists that this was
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: not something he would do on his own. Now, the
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: Sunomish County Sheriff's Office mounted a large search and rescue effort.
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: In the first week, professional trackers sent dogs, cadaver dogs, drones,
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: helicopters with infrared, and riverboats combed the area. On April fifth,
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty volunteers searched shoulder to shoulder looking
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: for him. Investigators initially expected to recover remains, but the
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: total lack of evidence convinced many that Jonathan had likely
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: been taken by car the night he vanished. Now, despite
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: a subpoena, Apple refused to release Jonathan's iPad data, and
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: the last find myping placed it directly in front of
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: his house. His telephone was left behind, and no digital
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: clues have surfaced. With no results, the Sheriff's office shifted
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: the case from search and rescue to major crimes. For
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: nearly three months, there were no credible sightings until June
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: twenty third, twenty twenty five, security cameras from three homes
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: in South Wanita, Kirkland, about fifty miles away, captured footage
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: of Jonathan between eleven PM and midnight. In the videos,
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: he looks clean and groomed, but a bit disoriented. His
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: distinctive walk, posture, and vocal stem the soft were all there.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: His teachers, speech pathologists, and extended family confirmed it was Jonathan. Now,
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: the family believes he may have been with someone and
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: became separated that night. One street in the area even
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: shares a name similar to Jonathan's home address, raising the
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: possibility that his habitual nature may have drew him there.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: Since then, there have been no verified sightings. Now, Jonathan's
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: family has fought tire tirelessly. They've created flyers, media campaigns,
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: and online communities. They've raised funds, hired a private investigator,
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: and sought help from local officials, state representatives, senators, and
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: even the governor's office. They've pressed for FBI involvement, though
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: Snahomish County has yet to request interagency support, which not
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: a fan of that I am not known. His father,
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: Thou describes the helplessness of knowing Jonathan may be out
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: there asking to come home. His sister Irene calls it excruciating,
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: not knowing if he is safe, and the family believes
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: Jonathan is alive but under someone else's care or control,
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: and they are determined to bring him home. Now. Jonathan's
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: case remains open with the Snahomish County Major Crimes and
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: a hundred thousand dollars reward is being offered for information
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: that leads to his safe return or answers in his disappearance. Now,
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: if you live in Washington State or anywhere, please keep
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: Jonathan in mind. He may appear disoriented, anxious, or homeless,
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: but he is loved, missed, and urgently needed at home.
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: If you have information, call the Snowhomish County Sheriff's Office
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: or your local law enforcement immediately. Now. Jonathan's story is
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: one of vulnerability, trust in a family's relentless fight for answers.
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: He is more than a missing poster. He is a
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: young man who loves silly books, root gear, floats, video games,
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: and his little dog Lady. Someone knows where Jonathan is,
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: so please share his story, spread his photo, and help
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: bring Jonathan home. Now. If you know of or have
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: a loved one missing and are interested in having their
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: story featured on an upcoming episode of Midday Missing and
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: or want to join us for a live interview, Please
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: contact Amy, our producer, by emailing Amy Amy at tcwtmedia
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: dot com. Now for our next story, We're going to
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: talk about Julianne Cecilia Jaihei. Julianne was thirty six years
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: old when she disappeared in nineteen eighty five. She stood
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: about five foot seven, weighed around one hundred and twenty
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: five pounds, with brown hair and striking green eyes. She
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: was a mother, a sister, and a newlywed just six
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: months into her marriage to a man named Ian when
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: she vanished. Now, Julianne and Ian lived in Bellevue, Washington,
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: in a rented home in the Lake Hills neighborhood. Her daughter,
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: who lived with her grandparents at the time and was
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: just eleven years old, recalls shopping with her mom and
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: sharing pizza together in the days before she disappeared. Julianne's
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: sister remembered talking with her on the phone and said
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: that Julianne was cheerful and busy decorating her new home
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: and looking forward to the future. Those who knew her
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: describe her laugh, her smile, and her warmth. She was
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: the kind of woman who made her presence felt in
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: any room, full of energy, vibrant and caring. Now on
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: June one, nineteen eighty five, life for Julienne appeared normal,
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: but behind the scenes there was some tension. She and
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: her husband had an argument. According to Ian, they got
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: into an argument and julian told him that she was leaving,
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: and when Ian returned home, she was gone, as well
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: as a suitcase and some of her belongings. This was
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: the last time anyone in her family saw her. Now,
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: no one reported her missing right away. As a matter
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: of fact, weeks went by, and then finally, on June eighteenth,
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: it was her parents, not her husband, Ian, who filed
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: the missing person's report. Then something strange happened. A few
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: weeks later, Julianne's purse appeared in the lobby of the
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: MGM Grand Hotel in Reno, Nevada, hundreds of miles away
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: from her home in Washington. Inside was her wallet and
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: other personal belongings. Now an employee then mailed the purse
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: and belongings to Julianne's parents' home, saying Julianne had forgotten them,
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: and this is weird. That is weird to me that
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: somebody just mailed and knew to mail them to Julian's
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: parents' house. That's it's interesting, but we'll keep going. But
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: investigators could find no evidence that Julianne had ever checked
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: into the hotel, stayed there, or even been seen in Reno.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: It was a clue that raised more questions than answers.
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: Now police in Bellevue, Washington opened the investigation once her
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: parents filed the report. Detectives looked into the Reno connection,
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: but the trail quickly went cold. There were no records,
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: no witnesses, in no sign of Julienne beyond the strange
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: appearance of her purse. Now, the case was complicated by
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: the delay in reporting her missing. Without early searches, without
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: interviews in those crucial first days, vital leads may have
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: been lost. Now to this day, investigators have never recovered
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: any additional belongings, and no confirmed sightings have surfaced. Now,
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: Julianne's daughter never believed her mother left voluntarily. As she
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: grew older, she voiced suspicions that Ian, Julianne's husband knew
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: more than he ever revealed. According to her daughter, she
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: actually confronted Ian years later about her mother's disappearance and
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: said to him that Julianne was gone because of him,
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: and he responded briefly with the word I know, but
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: gave no explanation. Oh that's very interesting Ian. Now, since
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: nineteen eighty five, Ian has remarried four times, Anne moved
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: at least a dozen or more times. Julianne's daughter believes
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: her mom was murdered in the house and disposed of.
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: I mean that theory is an interesting one, that's for sure. Now.
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: There were no solid leads, no phone calls, no letters,
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: and no bank activity. Public speculation has swirled for decades,
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: but law enforcement has never confirmed any theory about what
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: really happened. Now. Julianne's disappearance left a hole in her
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: family's life that has never healed. Her daughter missed birthdays, milestones,
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: and holidays without her mom. She has spoken openly about
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: the pain of growing up without answers. Her family has
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: long believed that someone out there knows something. Someone may
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: hold the piece of the puzzle that explains not just
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: why julian left that day, but what happened to her afterward.
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: My opinion is that she didn't actually leave, but that's
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: just my theory. Nearly forty years have passed and Julianne
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: Cecilia Julie is still missing. Her case is still open,
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: and authorities continue to urge anyone with information, no matter
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: how small, to come forward, even after decades. A single
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: tip could unlock the truth. Now on screen, you'll see
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: Julienne's missing person put and please take a moment to
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: share it, spread the word and keep her memory alive.
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: Hashtags like hashtag find Julianne Julie can help bring new
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: attention to this case across social media. Julianne's story matters.
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: She mattered then and she matters now. Someone knows what happened,
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: and until answers come, her family will never stop searching. Now,
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: I want to thank you all for being with me
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: here today. Terry will be back again on Wednesday for
• 17:41
