◆ June 2026 updates: Case 06 (Casias) — moved from missing to dead, cause undetermined · Case 11 (McCasland) — "prior warning given" now marked: wife's 911 call confirms he disclosed to her he "planned not to be found"; also reported fears of mental/physical decline to those close to him in weeks prior to disappearance.
◆ IMPORTANT — No law enforcement agency has officially confirmed connections between these cases. The FBI is actively investigating for links. The House Oversight Committee has formally requested briefings. No public findings have been released. This page documents only what is verifiable in the public record. Pattern observations are editorial — they are what the facts show, not what they prove. ◆ Updated June 2026.
