This week Jane tells us about a spring break gone bad with the case of Britnee Drexel. Britnee disappeared in 2009 and the case went cold for several years. A false report led investigators to believe they solved the case until phone tracking technology proved the case needed to be further investigated to find the real perpetrator, Raymond Moody. Deklan tells us about Toran Singh, known as Titu. He started telling his parents about interesting memories of his life at a very young age. He knew details about places that a child couldn’t possibly have known about at the time. Was Titu reincarnated from a man who had been murdered? We also enjoy the Spring Bubbles cocktail.
