FIVE TERRIFYING 911 CALLS
*This episode contains audio clips from real 911 calls and brief mentions of sexual assault that may be disturbing. Listener discretion is strongly advised*
This week, as we mark the fifth anniversary of our very first episode, we examine five deeply distressing 911 calls — harrowing moments captured on tape, and in one case, a moment that led to rescue.
We begin with the haunting disappearance of Anthonette Cayedito, whose brief and heartbreaking call may have been her only chance of escape. Then, we examine the shocking emergency call connected to serial killer Shawn Grate, where a captive victim risked everything to whisper for help.
Next, we revisit the mysterious 911 call made by Shannan Gilbert, a case that would later expose the horrors tied to the Long Island Serial Killer investigation. We also analyze the frantic and cryptic call from Brandon Lawson, whose words sparked years of debate and chilling theories. Finally, we cover the harrowing abduction of Denise Lee, whose desperate pleas for help reveal how seconds can mean the difference between life and death.
These real emergency recordings provide a sobering look at crises unfolding in real time — and the difficult, lingering questions that remain in some of these cases.
If you have any information on the Anthonette Cayedito case, please call 1-505-889-1300 or visit Tips.FBI.gov.
