In this episode of Hometown History, we uncover the mysterious disappearance of Judge Joseph Force Crater, an event that captured the nation’s attention in 1930 and coined the phrase “to pull a Crater.” Judge Crater’s sudden vanishing after a dinner in New York City sparked one of the most baffling investigations in American history. Was it foul play, a voluntary escape, or something more sinister? Decades of speculation, false leads, and conspiracy theories have kept the case alive. Join us as we explore the life, career, and disappearance of the man once dubbed “the Missingest Man in New York,” and how his case remains an unsolved enigma to this day.Visit me online at itshometownhistory.comJoin me on Patreon at Patreon.com/friendsofShane.Contact me at Shane@itshometownhistory.comSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
