Gwen Hasselquist Part 2 - Gig Harbor - Washington

Author: Locations Unknown December 27, 2021 Duration: 1:51:33
(UPDATE- We experienced some issues with Mike's audio feed on this episode resulting in his volume being lower than normal - we apologize to anyone having a hard time hearing the episode and will have the issue corrected on the next show.)  

In Episode 50, we learned about a suspicious death, a husband who remarried within months, who then fled the country.  With very little coverage of the death, and even less information about the events leading up to her death, we submitted FOIA requests to fill in the gaps.  Recently, one of our FOIA requests was completed and a 21-page police report on Gwen's death was sent to us.   Join us this week as we continue to investigate the death of Gwen Hasselquist. 

A copy of the Police report will be posted on our website after this episode is published.  

You can listen to Part 1 of this case here: EP. #50: Gwen Hasselquist - Gig Harbor - Washington (podbean.com)

Locations Unknown ventures into the silent, vast spaces where people have simply gone missing. Hosts Mike & Joe guide each episode through a specific case, piecing together timelines from the final known moments, through the often-frustrating official searches, and into the lingering questions that haunt families and park rangers alike. This isn't just a true crime podcast; it’s a close look at the intersection of human error, unpredictable nature, and the peculiar geography of places like dense national forests and isolated mountain ranges that can swallow a person whole. You’ll hear about the decisions made in the critical hours, the terrain that complicated everything, and the community of experts and amateurs who keep looking. The show naturally explores how these landscapes, while beautiful, hold secrets, making the wilderness itself a central character in every story. Tune in for a respectful, detailed examination of stories that end not with a conclusion, but with an open map and a deepened mystery. The podcast digs into the cultural fascination with these vanishings and what they reveal about our relationship with the wild, remote corners of the country.
