CoolSculpting & the Disappearance of Michele Harris
Episode 226, Sep 07, 2022, 11:30 AM
Supermodel Linda Evangelista was feeling insecure about her body. Her thighs weren’t quite as slim as they used to be. Her jawline wasn’t quite as hard. A new cosmetic procedure called CoolSculpting seemed like the answer to her problems. The procedure was marketed as a non-invasive method for shrinking areas of stubborn fat. So imagine Linda’s surprise when the areas where she received CoolSculpting began to grow.
Then Brandi tells us about Michele Harris, a mother of four who went missing on September 11, 2001. In the months leading up to her disappearance, Michele and her husband Cal were in the middle of a contentious divorce. She’d begun dating other men. She got a part-time job. When she went missing, people suspected that Cal was to blame.
And now for a note about our process. For each episode, Kristin reads a bunch of articles, then spits them back out in her very limited vocabulary. Brandi copies and pastes from the best sources on the web. And sometimes Wikipedia. (No shade, Wikipedia. We love you.) We owe a huge debt of gratitude to the real experts who covered these cases.
