Hiding in Plain Sight
How does a killer on parole just disappear? And how do investigators go about tracking him down years later? PI’s Declassified presents an unusual case of locating a man 38 years after he vanished, fleeing his parole officer and leaving no traces. The entire case had nearly been forgotten. But one day when Dr. Clem Pellett of Bellevue, Washington was cleaning out his mother’s home, he found newspaper clippings and learned about the murder of his grandfather, Clarence Pellett. Clarence was shot to death by a hitchhiker named Frank Dryman in 1951. Dryman was convicted and served time, but when he was released to parole, he vanished. More than thirty years had passed, but Dr. Pellett decided to try to find his grandfather’s killer. Tune in to hear the three resourceful private investigators who worked in concert to locate Frank Dryman and return him to the authorities. It’s an incredible story of hiding in plain sight.
