Uncovering Austin's Dark Secrets: Missing Persons, Stolen Cars, and Serial Killer's Dumping Ground!

We traveled to Austin, Texas to help search for missing person Adrian Washington, last seen in 2012, we searched Lady Bird Lake for his missing car and discovered two stolen vehicles. We reported them to the police and also learned that 10 bodies had been found in this lake since 2022 killed by a suspected serial killer. In addition the two cars we found are suspectedly stolen by the Kia boys, a group of teen that steal cars and commit crimes.
More info on Adrian's case:
Adrian was last seen in Austin, Texas on May 25, 2012. He was driving a black 2001 Ford Expedition with the Texas license plate number CP1P982. At 9:00 a.m., he stopped at Planet Fitness off Anderson Lane. After that he went to a dry-cleaning business, where he was given $300 worth of dry-cleaning for free because he was such a good customer. Surveillance cameras filmed his car at a toll booth on Interstate 45 after that.
Adrian has never been heard from again. One of the two cellular phones he was carrying was found on a sidewalk in San Antonio, Texas a few days after his disappearance. It was in good condition and wasn't scratched; it looked as if someone had deliberately placed the phone on the sidewalk rather than dropping it.
Aldo Ray Washington, one of Adrian's cousins, is considered a person of interest in his disappearance. He was the last person to see Adrian, and the two men talked on the phone frequently. In the month before Adrian's disappearance, Aldo called his cellular phone over 100 times. After Adrian went missing, however, Aldo never dialed his phone number again.
Aldo stated he was with a friend, Kenneth Ray Hamilton, at the time Adrian vanished, but authorities haven't been able to confirm this alibi and they think Hamilton may have been involved in Adrian's disappearance as well.
Adrian left behind a wife and three children. He's missing under suspicious circumstances and his case remains unsolved.

Always nice when enforcement behaves this way instead of acting like you are bothering them.

It definitely is an amazing thing they do. But personally I find it more amazing that despite their success they’ve stayed just as humble and respectful as they were when they first started as well as being more professional and less goofy shenanigans compared to when they started.

Beautifully done! You brought the story of the family and produced a very nice recording of the search efforts and interactions with city officials. You might have been disappointed about not having your new boat in the water, but your old faithful sonar boat and new magnet dropping techniques proved effective! As more ppl become aware of your efforts , you may get called in earlier by families tired of waiting on law enforcement that's low on staff.

Great job!! I’m an Austinite and happy you found those cars Fact: about 7 yrs ago, give or take a year or two, Texas license plates used to be 6 characters and that changed to 7 characters. And they are, unless a vanity plate or something close to a vanity plate( ones where you can pay 💰 extra for) only black and white- exactly like the license plates you found. Grateful for all that you do!

Thanks Adam, [and those who work with you] we need as many people as possible to do what you guys do... I KNOW it has to be bitter sweet. You find someone's vehicle, with remains, and it is great, and time to bring that person home, then to see the families faces, they now KNOW for sure their loved one is GONE.... Dam, that's hard, to see a momma hold hope for 1 - 5 - 10 - 20 years, and going through their minds, hopping that the loved one is out there alive somewhere, but they say even if they are gone, we need to know, yet when the do KNOW they are crushed.. Dam that's hard. Love you guys, sometimes you make this old 71 yr old Texas boy's eyes leak..... Cannot imagine not knowing. Ty Prayers love from SE Texas Bear
