Bonus Episode! Season Three, Patreon Episode #1
In 1983, Rebecca and Vaughn Arceneaux of Kaplan, Louisiana, finally decided to separate after several years of remaining in a not-so-great marriage. Rebecca was given custody of their son, Beau, who was somewhere between 15 and 17 months old. The judge established a steady visitation schedule in which Beau was with Vaughn every other weekend.
But, on November 22, 1983, father, Vaugh, failed to return Beau at the pre-arranged time.
On September 15th, 1995, 12-year-old Beau, who lived in Austin, Texas, was chatting on the internet with a friend from Delaware. Colleen Lorenson made a joke that she could be his mother, since she was twice his age. But, Beau confessed that he wished he had a mother, since he hadn’t spoken to his own mother in 12 years. His father said Beau’s mother left him because she didn’t love him. Colleen Lorenson, from Delaware, just didn’t buy it. Neither did Kandy Slack, Beau’s neighbor whose computer he was borrowing, or Joni Whiting, from Minnesota.
The three women were determined to find out the truth about Vaughn.
For those of you who don't know what Patreon is, Patreon is a way for you, the listeners, to support your favorite podcasts by donating small amounts of money each month. At Neurotic Nourishment we have a $3 level, which earns you a public thank you, a $5 level, which gives you access to 3-4 bonus episodes per month, a $10 level that allows you access to the monthly live Q & A sessions, and the rather unlikely $100 level, which qualifies you for sainthood -- at least in my eyes, that is.
