Vanished on a Camping Trip. The Disappearance of Patricia "Patti" Adkins
#pattiadkins
Hello everyone, in today's case I will be discussing the disappearance of Patricia "Patti" Adkins.
Patti was 29 years old at the time of her disappearance. She has blonde hair, hazel eyes, is roughly 5'8" tall and 120lbs. She was last seen on June 29th 2001 at the Honda plant in Marysville, Ohio. She clocked out a few seconds after midnight on June 29, 2001, at the end of the second shift. She then was supposed to be going on a camping trip with her boyfriend, as they both had the week off from the plant. She left the plant with him, (in his pickup truck) and was never seen again. Patti was thought to be carrying a teal duffle bag with her and was last seen wearing her white Honda uniform. Her boyfriend was married, and told Patti he was pursuing a divorce.. He had borrowed close to 100 thousand dollars from her, and right before she went missing, she had started asking for repayment. He remains anonymous to this day.
My thoughts and prayers go out to Patti, her daughter, and her family and friends🙏🙏
If you have any information regarding this case, please contact The Marysville Police Department at 937-642-3900
or The Union County Sheriff’s Department at: 937-644-5010

Actually when you go camping a lot of times there is no signal. But what there is is GPS which is damn good to have if you got lost. Especially if you download offline maps. Yeah telling her to leave her phone and not bring anything should have set off all kinds of alarms. I mean what did she think they were going to spend all that time with no clothes on?

If they croseed the border into Canada, wouldn’t it be easy to check ? Don’t they check ID and vehicle license #’s and want to know the destination, how long they plan to stay and if they have a reservation for a hotel or cabin and if they have enough money to pay for it and money to pay for food, and lodging during their stay Canada? Sheesh! We took a ferry to Victoria BC from Seattle for a weekend stay. We had to wait and be interviewed all ID checked, baggage searched, purses searched, hotel reservation verufied, bank cards verified and return tickets home verified. They wanted to know everything we panned to do, ie tour the city, visit museums etc…This was in 2006, after 911, and border security was high. It was just as intense getting back into the US. So I wonder if police even checked if they made it into Canada? Killing her in Canada would have left some clues and questions about why she wasn’t along on crossing back into US. Canadian police would be searching for her for over staying her visit. I had a friend whise daughter over stayed her visit , and they tracked her down and de-ported her.
There is something that skrikes the heart of this investigation. The wife is also in on this. Thank you for covering this case and all your hard work.

The fact that Patti told her sister about the trip and. The fact that the boyfriend told Patty not to bring her phone. The fact that she’d gotten family to take care of her daughter because she obviously told them she was going on a trip. All that and he yelled the cops that he barely knew her. He said that they never had a relationship. He said they’d never gone on a trip to Canada with her. He said the card that she sent him that the police found, was from all the workers….however, hers was the only signature on that card. The bottom line is that she was in a relationship with him and told family that she was going on a trip. Got family to take her daughter……. and he’s denying they ever went!!!! He also failed the lie detector test!!!! I think the cops had a lot to go on. Had they interviewed the wife she might have spilled the beans. Plenty of evidence - told her sister that she would have to lie in the back of the truck but he claims she was never there…… yet the hairs from her own cat were on the truck cover. It is beyond me that they say they don’t have enough evidence!!!

I guess you have a pretty relaxed view of Justice. He has already gotten away with twenty years of the prime of his life. The guy has to be in his fifties at least if not 60s. And unless they arrest him pretty quick which is highly unlikely he will never even see a day in jail. Life in prison has less meaning the shorter your life becomes as you get old.

How do you give someone $90,000 when you only see them sometimes out of work? This story sounds absolutely crazy. Patti was, obviously, very naive. I feel badly that she was treated so poorly by that POS that killed her. Why wasn't this disappearance properly investigated? This is really a tragic story. Thanks, Bryan, for sharing.

Do you know what State this POS is in now? Doesn't seem like LE even really investigated. Like you mentioned there were cameras at Honda. I'm sure he had a cell phone as well they could ping. And if he did take her through the Canadian border there is cameras there as well. Not to mention DNA has come along way. They can test the smallest speck of blood now.
There’s no way the scumbag boyfriend didn’t do something to her. He took her camping to do away with her because he had no intentions of leaving his wife or paying her back. And, most of the time when something happens to someone it’s by someone they know. Homicide by strangers is actually rare. I hope the cops are seriously looking at the boyfriend. Edit: Wow, they’ve locked people up on less. This is enraging. You’re kidding about not knowing the motives, right? Right before she went missing she asked for him to start paying her back and the affair was nothing more than that in his eyes, even tho he was telling her he was going to leave his wife, which he obviously had no intention of doing. People have murdered over just one of those plenty of times.

It's obvious that guys wife knew all along and was in on the whole thing. The guy and his wife decided to kill her when the money was stopping. Authorities need to track the man and woman down and arrest both. Pattie is not their first or last victim guarantee it.

They will come to the point where they will be able to get DNA off of that little speck of blood. I'm sure the killer has to be worried about these advancements in DNA and seeing how killers are being arrested years later. Prayers and strength to her family.

That is one of the worst dynamics to have in a relationship - married, borrowing money, hiding you under a tarp - geez! I am sure he led her on - told her he was in a loveless marriage, that he would leave his wife - she was so young, it is an awful situation to be involved with people with no conscience. Be kind, it is a very hard relationship to out of, I know. I am disappointed in police - they need to dig deeper on this one. He was the last person to see her alive.

Relationship rule number one: if the person you're seeing is having an affair (with you!!) they are the kind of person to have an affair. They are a cheater. Really, that's how you want to start a relationship, already knowing that the other person is a cheater? They are showing you the kind of person that they are. Believe them. 100% untrustworthy. And if they are untrustworthy by cheating they're probably untrustworthy in other parts of life. Run, don't walk, away.

Of the unimaginable things I can claim I did in my life, saving a high school friend from something that was happening to them, very similar to this, was one of the 'best feeling' things I can say that I ever accomplished in my life. I knew her in high school, we dated a little bit, nothing serious...and after school ended, I joined the military. I loved the life, and being single, athletic and loving 'high adventure', I ended up with a Special Operations group for a few years. After I got out of the service, I went to college, good career...and one day out of the blue, when 'internet social stuff' just started getting 'big', I thought...'hey, wonder what other high school associates are up to?' Started doing a few simple name searches...found a few pages...and I came across one that I had to check twice to see 'if it was really her'...the posts were dark, sad to read...and then a very recent one, asking if 'anyone knew what happened to' was there...and she was looking ME UP! So, not really thinking 'worst-cases' through, I replied...within minutes, my post was deleted, and I got a 'private message'...she was scared, really scared...she had been married for over a decade to what eventually, she realized, was a real monster. Controlling, didn't work...she had to turn over her paycheck to him...he beat her, was in with most every form of 'authority' in the city and county they were in...and had told audacious lies about 'government and military intelligence', 'black ops', etc...which was so much hogwash, but he strutted all 300-pounds around in his hometown like he was god...and none would counter him. She cried for a bit...I told her to call, if she wanted...and within a few hours, she said 'I'll call in 30-minutes, before I have to clock in at work'...she called...told me so much more, it was heartbreaking to hear. I told her, 'if you need a safe space, you can stay at my home until you can get back on your feet...I don't mind, I don't control...and I'd help any friend...you know that'. She chuckled and said, 'yeah...like I can afford that. I don't know where you are, and he barely lets me have enough out of my check for gas to work and lunch!'...I said, if you want to leave tonight, just say it...I'll pay your ticket...you just owe me a smile, when it's done. I've got some friends, can probably get you job interviews this week...'...she said, 'are you here in this state?' I said, 'nope...(at the time, I was about 2,000 miles away)...say the word, I'll make it happen, you just get a taxi to the airport, the rest is 'a day of air travel'...with that, she hung up....I worried all day about her...but at about the same time the next evening she said 'I'm off tomorrow...but he thinks I'm working...can you get me out of here tomorrow?' YEP...I said. No clue if I could, without 10-connecting flights, but told her 'pack NOTHING...so he can't claim theft...just show up at the airport. I'll text you the time, allow for an hour earlier, to process through'...All things said, it took 3-connecting flights and 10-hours. I really didn't know what I'd stepped into, or have a clue how bad it would get...but once it started, I knew 'she would have disappeared, and no one would have cared to help her...she couldn't get out of it!' She filed for divorce a week after arriving...and that gave her 'soon-to-be-ex' her address...then the phone calls started coming...TO ME! Threats of all sorts...him, his family, HER FAMILY...they were all determined HE OWNED HER! What started as 'civil' quickly turned to all-out warfare that ended with recordings, several federal charges (on him), and a direct threat (recorded) of him telling me 'he was coming to terminate me, and tie-her-up and take her back!...not good things to have recorded on interstate phone lines. She was legit...and smart enough to reach out. Most aren't. It took her a long time to 'get her head back on straight'...to remember she was a person, and NO ONE OWNED HER...She now has a good job, a great home...a crazy cat...and most importantly, her self and freedom again. Set me back, buying a new 'toy' by a few months...AND I do get amazing boxes of christmas cookies each year! Odds were 1,000,000:1 it wouldn't have ended so well...and knowing I made the difference...makes all the difference in the world!

Wow! What happened to your friendship- is it gonna turn to more? Just curious
Thank you so much for sharing this case! Patti's disappearance has been a case that has angered me for years!!! I really feel one of two scenarios took place. The first and most suspicious to me is that Mr. X's wife was in on the scam from the beginning. $90,000 is an extremely large amount of money!!! I don't buy the wife being oblivious to his affair!!! The other scenario is that Patti was putting pressure on Mr. X to come through on his divorce OR start returning the money be "borrowed". In either scenario, Mr. X (Mr. Lying A. Scumbag) removed Patti from the equation. In my opinion Mrs. X was just as guilty!!! I really hope this case is a priority to law enforcement and Patti's family finds justice!!!!

I've watched this case years ago that suggests her married boy friend was responsible for her disappearance. He's never been charged. Most probably the boy friend is the one responsible for taking her life. It's such a sad story.
A good heart in this world, is so often taken advantage of instead of being appreciated. RIP Patti.
I think he had her hide under the truck cover so she wasn’t aware of where he was taking her and not to bring her cell phone so her location couldn’t be traced. Did they question the friend he claimed to have went to the Burger King with? Also, why would you drive that far to go to a fast food joint? Also, possible the wife could have been in on it if she actually did know about the affair. His entire story sounds highly suspect.

@@stephenphillips5523 I think his buddy did more than lie I think its highly likely he was involved in her disappearance. The police work was very shady and as is the case in many small town and rural areas the police are friends or school mates of the guilty parties and dont go out of their way to investigate to strenuously . I see this pattern in many cases like this one .

I remember this case. I thought it was a house that he had to buy from his wife. As far as getting her to hide in his truck--Prince Harry used to ask his girlfriends to hide in his trunk or backseat with a blanket over them. At least one dumped him because it was so humiliating.
I'd never heard of this case before, and I'm so glad you covered it. My heart aches for Patti and her loved ones.

People have been conditioned since kindergarten to let paid experts handle all their problems. Yes you need to pursue Brian and then persuade Brian to confess what he did and you need to do it while he is duct taped to a chair and you have vice grips in one hand and a knife in the other.
It's good that you're making this case known again shining some light on it so maybe somebody that lives up that way we'll go take care of it and do what needs to be done
I read about this case for the first time many years ago ( but you told it great, Bryan) but it doesn’t seem possible that anyone is a suspect besides the married boyfriend. Could this actually be more obvious? It seems very much like the Brian Laundrie search right now. Could there be anyone except Laundrie? Could there be anyone except Patti’s “ boyfriend” or should I say money stealer? Someone tell me how the cops let this boyfriend get away with murder! He didn’t want to repay the money. Period. Case closed. Get the guy.
He probably didn't even take her camping, probably did this all over money? I hope and pray she is found. Such a shame, hope one day he is held accountable. Prayers to her family and friends.

This is the first time hearing Patties story. My thoughts and prayers for the family. Never give up hope for answers and justice.
I heard about this case a long time ago. I hope patti will get justice she deserve and the supposed boyfriend go to jail. It’s so obvious that he scammed and killed her. What a scumbag, no conscience at all. I pray for Patti and her family that this case will be solved.
Bryan, could you please cover Madison Scott's disappearance while she was camping. Thank you
It's really crappy if someone your dating exploits you for your money, very terrible. I hope they catch this dude.
Thank you for taking the time to help people. There should be more people like you!

For a person who was able to hold down a great job, own a home and raise a daughter….she didn’t make very good decisions when it came to her own well being. Carrying on with a married man is the worst decision a woman can ever make. Nothing good comes out of it. He, obviously, used her for money and whatever else he could get from her. I’ve had it done to me by someone who was not married. She allowed him to treat her the way he did and she did nothing about it. This could have all been avoided by not having an affair with a married man.
I've seen the episode of Disappeared that features this poor woman's story, and it makes me so angry; it seems totally clear that this man killed her, yet the authorities seem to be unable to do anything because he refuses to talk. I hope they eventually find some evidence against this jackass. I've always wondered if her family could take him to civil court--the burden of proof is a lot less than in criminal court, but he'd have to testify, and sometimes when civil cases are won, authorities/prosecutors will follow up with criminal charges, especially if any incriminating evidence comes to light during the trial.

Yes I agree. Some cases just fade into the sunset. And then there are those cases that cover the same story over and over and over ………..
With all due respect, how “good of a person” could she have been if she was willing to carry on with year long affair with a married man? She didn’t deserve getting strangled by the dude and to have her body buried under some brush, but as soon as she decided to bug the guy about the money that he conned out of her, she had signed her own death warrant. It’s very likely that she had told him something like “You’re Not ever going to leave your wife for me, are you? Then give me back the 90k I have had given you or else I will tell everyone about us. Your wife, your parents, our bosses…EVERYONE!” Having his back against the wall, the guy had to change his tune and he probably said to her “no baby, don’t be like that, you know I only love you! Tell you what; let’s go to the woods for the whole week, just you and me! We will have no one else there but us and after we get back, we…WE MOVE IN TOGETHER!” But he had already decided that she could NEVER come back from that “camping trip!”

Did the police even verify that the couple operated a “business”, or was that just a story he told Patti to get $$? How did the investigators explain Patti’s disappearance if they discounted she was having an affair? That boyfriend got away with murder, premeditated murder.
Yeah, I’ve seen quite a few docs about this case, and there’s very little mystery involved.
This is a real departure from the usual case that Bryan covers. This seems like a crime, not a list hiker or camper. I was glad to hear that authorities are investigating the case.
I was astounded by the extremely poor decisions that Patricia was making. How can you help someone who is making such bad decisions. Still, she deserves better than this!
Thank you for talking about this case. Not many podcasters have covered it.
I'm wondering if touch DNA would be beneficial in this case- such a shame that justice has not been brought yet Prayers for the family
Can't believe some can be so very intelligent and just completely lose their minds over a user!! I remember this case well and personally I believe that his wife was just as guilty. They worked this woman to get her money. Sickening. Sorry for her family and friends. I pray LE can solve this case and put them both away.
Wishing you Bryan and wonderful day. You have a wonderful heart and thank you for educating us and sharing the experiences of people who we don't want to forget.
I am completely disgusted with these so called men and terrible things they do and there is a special place in hell waiting for them.
Man this is so sad and infuriating. It seems like LE could do more....to be able to have done what that bf did...that requires a sociopathic level of coldness, cruelty, manipulation. It's scary knowing he is walking around free...My heart totally breaks for that woman. I hate that they won't release his name.
I live in Marysville Ohio, and the guy is a mechanic who runs a small shop out of his garage. They did a search and went over every inch of Marysville, Raymond, East liberty and so much more. But they could put her in his truck bed and never seen again. But he didn't know her personally. It was him or him and his friend who could have done it. That simple, and one or both should be held accountable
This is a really old, really popular story. There's video confrontations with this guy on other channels. I've never understood why the cat hair was not enough

As far as the Police Department in that area, I pray they replace those involved with this case and get someone with a brain. 20 year's is too long for a grieving family when the truth is locked up in evidence.......smh
