12 APR 2025 · On a cool September evening in 1992, 14-year-old Misty Copsey was just trying to enjoy a night out at the Puyallup Fair with her best friend. But when a mix-up left her to find her own way home, Misty seemingly vanished without a trace. What followed was a series of heartbreaking missteps by law enforcement, disturbing clues that pointed to something sinister, and years of silence that left her family desperate for answers.
In this episode of Chillworthy, we dive deep into Misty's last known moments, the mysterious phone call that never came, and the eerie discovery of her jeans miles away from where she was last seen. We’ll also examine the controversial handling of the investigation, a self-proclaimed amateur detective who inserted himself into the case, and the chilling question that remains more than 30 years later: What really happened to Misty Copsey?
