Neighbors' Chilling Suspicion Confirmed Years After Man Vanishes

When Gary Herbst vanished from his Minnesota home in July 2013, it seemed he had simply abandoned his family. Neighbors knew him as a confrontational man, and his disappearance on the 8th looked like a walkout on his wife and teenage son. But some neighbors had witnessed unusual activity at the house. Their private suspicions were dark. One couple later recalled thinking, "I think they finally killed him." For years, the case remained cold. Then, a startling discovery would prove those grim whispers correct. Authorities have now confirmed that what neighbors feared they saw was not imagination. It was evidence.
