In May 2002, 24‑year‑old Evelyn Hernández — nine months pregnant — vanished from her San Francisco neighborhood along with her five‑year‑old son, Alex. Nearly three months later, Evelyn’s torso was found in the San Francisco Bay. Her unborn baby was missing. Alex was missing. And the case received only a fraction of the attention given to similar Bay Area disappearances that same year.

This episode examines the timeline, the investigation, the systemic disparities, and the unanswered question that still haunts the case: Where is Alex Hernández?
