Just after 3 a.m. on December 31, 1989, Collier Boyle heard the sound of raised voices, followed by two loud thuds, and then nothing. By morning, his mother, Noreen, was missing. His father, John Boyle Jr., claimed she'd left for a trip, but the suitcase she always used was still there, untouched. So was her purse.Collier asked questions that no one seemed willing to answer. As suspicion grew, so did the weight of what he knew. Eventually, it would be his voice—his testimony—that unraveled the story his father tried so hard to hide.This episode traces the truth behind Noreen Boyle's disappearance and the courage of a boy who spoke up, even when it meant turning in his own father.If you are experiencing domestic violence, call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233, or go to http://thehotline.org .
