Sean discusses the case of Jennifer Wilbanks, a bride from Duluth, Georgia who went missing days before her wedding in 2004. Despite an extensive search involving local and federal law enforcement, Wilbanks was eventually found in Albuquerque, New Mexico, claiming to have been abducted and sexually assaulted. However, she later confessed to fabricating the story due to the overwhelming pressure of her impending wedding. Sean and Jason delve into the unusual aspects of the case, including the massive search effort, the media frenzy surrounding Wilbanks' disappearance, and the subsequent backlash she faced upon her return.
