Described as "America's Dyatlov Pass Incident," the disappearance of five young men has baffled the world for decades. When their vehicle is found abandoned on a rough mountain road, authorities are suddenly filled with more questions than answers. Why did the group of men drive the wrong direction from home and end up on the side of a mountain? Why did they leave the safety of the vehicle to head out, presumably on foot, completely unprepared and underdressed, into the snow? Where did they go? When signs of the men start being discovered, the questions only intensify. Here we are, over 40 years later, still asking.....what happened to the Yuba County Five?

On a cold February night in 1978, five men left a basketball game in Chico, California, for what should have been a routine drive home. But instead of heading south, they veered east—deep into the remote and frigid Plumas National Forest—never to be seen alive again. Was it a wrong turn, a sinister encounter, or something far stranger? This is the haunting mystery of the Yuba County Five.
In this chilling episode of Truth Be Told Paranormal, we dive deep into the baffling case of the Yuba County Five, one of the most mysterious disappearances in American history. In February 1978, five men from Yuba City, California, vanished without a trace after attending a college basketball game. Months later, their remains were discovered in the remote wilderness of the Plumas National Forest—under circumstances so bizarre they defy explanation.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/truth-be-told-paranormal--3589860/support.
This is the mysterious case of 5 men who went missing, 4 of them were later found dead and 1 of them has never been found.
Kalifornien, 24 Februar 1978Bill Sterling, Jackie Huett, Ted Weiher, Jack Madruga und Gary Mathias freuen sich auf einen gemeinsamen Ausflug. An diesem Freitagabend wollen die fünf Freunde ein Basketballspiel ihres Lieblingsteams in Chico besuchen, einer Stadt etwa eine Stunde von ihrem Heimatort entfernt. Die Männer, alle zwischen 24 und 32 Jahre alt, sind leidenschaftliche Sportler und spielen selbst im Team „Gateway Gators“. Am nächsten Tag steht für sie ein entscheidendes Turnier an, auf das sie schon voller Vorfreude blicken.Doch die Männer kehren an diesem Abend nicht nach Hause zurück. Als die Eltern der Fünf am nächsten Morgen aufwachen, beschleicht sie ein mulmiges Gefühl. Keine Anrufe, keine Lebenszeichen – ein Verhalten, das völlig untypisch für die Gruppe ist. In Sorge starten die Familien eine verzweifelte Suche, die bald auch die Polizei auf den Plan ruft.Tage später wird ihr verlassenes Auto tief in den verschneiten Bergen gefunden. Von den Männern fehlt jedoch jede Spur.Was als harmloser Ausflug begann, entwickelt sich zu einem der rätselhaftesten Vermisstenfälle der amerikanischen Kriminalgeschichte. Es gibt zahlreiche Theorien, Hinweise und Entdeckungen – doch was hat sich in diesem verschneiten Februar wirklich abgespielt?Inhaltswarnungen: Ableismus, Diskriminierung, Psychische KrankheitenSHOWNOTES:Podcast zum Fall:Yuba County Five: https://open.spotify.com/show/2oslJQ3GClTWyiE6gk1s4f?si=a68cf23cfb134379REISE IN DEN TOD - YAYHört rein bei Reise in den Tod, den Podcast, in dem es um Verbrechen geht, die beim Urlaub oder Reisen geschehen sind.

Tony Wright - Things Aren't Right - The Disappearance of the Yuba County FiveMarch 18Tony Wright joins Ed Opperman to talk about the facts and the fictions behind the now legendary case of the Yuba County Five.He's the author of two comic books and a graphic novel with Source Point Press. Tony is an archivist, father, husband, and a lost soul of rock and roll. When he is not writing, he is spending time with his family or enjoying a good meal. Tony has been featured as a Yuba County Five case expert on the Mopac Audio podcast Yuba County Five and was also featured as a case expert on the Motor Trend TV show Auto/Biography: Cold Case.The book explores the bizarre and tragic 1978 disappearance of Ted Weiher, Jack Madruga, Bill Sterling, Jackie Huett, and Gary Mathias in the Plumas National Forest in Northern California. Four of these men had intellectual disabilities while one was diagnosed with schizophrenia. On Friday, February 24, 1978, they left the Yuba County, California area in Madruga's 1969 Mercury Montego to attend a basketball game in Chico, California. Four days later the car they were traveling in was found abandoned on a snow-covered road in the mountains of the Plumas National Forest, some 75 miles in the wrong direction from home.Four jurisdictions of law enforcement would investigate and search for the missing men. Psychics were brought in, and there were strange reports of sightings of the five from numerous people. One witness came forward with an incredible story of seeing the men disappear into the forest that night. Yet every lead came to a dead end. About four months after they vanished, four of the five men's remains were found some 12 miles from the car, with one discovered in a US Forest Service trailer with plenty of food and fuel to keep them alive for months.Once described as ‘Bizarre as hell', the case of the Yuba County Five has baffled law enforcement and the families of the missing men for over 45 years. Tony Wright has meticulously researched this case, earning himself the reputation of being one of the foremost authorities on the subject, and his conclusions are likely as close as anyone will come to making sense of this tragedy.BookBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

On the snowy night of February 24th 1978, five friends attended a college basketball game together. Instead of returning home afterwards, their car is found abandoned 70 miles in the wrong direction in a remote area of a National Forest. As Spring arrives and the snow begins to melt, major findings surface. It's been almost 50 years and the Yuba County Five are still one of the biggest mysteries.

It was supposed be the most exciting weekend for five friends as they prepared for the biggest game in their basketball careers. Ted Weiher, Jack Madruga, Bill Sterling, Jackie Huett, and Gary Mathias were to play in a tournament that would enable them to travel to Los Angeles courtesy of the Special Olympics. They'd planned to watch their favourite college team first though, to inspire them for the following day. On Friday, February 24, 1978, five friends left the Yuba County, California area in Jack Madruga's 1969 Mercury Montego to attend a basketball game in Chico, California. Four days later the car they were traveling in was found abandoned on a snow-covered road in the mountains of the Plumas National Forest, some 75 miles in the wrong direction from home. What happend to the Yuba County Five has baffled people for over 45 years and in his forensic deep dive in to the case, author and researcher Tony Wright chased down every rabbit hole on the search for answers.

Tony Wright joins Ed Opperman to talk about the facts and the fictions behind the now legendary case of the Yuba County Five.He's the author of two comic books and a graphic novel with Source Point Press. Tony is an archivist, father, husband, and a lost soul of rock and roll. When he is not writing, he is spending time with his family or enjoying a good meal. Tony has been featured as a Yuba County Five case expert on the Mopac Audio podcast Yuba County Five and was also featured as a case expert on the Motor Trend TV show Auto/Biography: Cold Case.The book explores the bizarre and tragic 1978 disappearance of Ted Weiher, Jack Madruga, Bill Sterling, Jackie Huett, and Gary Mathias in the Plumas National Forest in Northern California. Four of these men had intellectual disabilities while one was diagnosed with schizophrenia. On Friday, February 24, 1978, they left the Yuba County, California area in Madruga's 1969 Mercury Montego to attend a basketball game in Chico, California. Four days later the car they were traveling in was found abandoned on a snow-covered road in the mountains of the Plumas National Forest, some 75 miles in the wrong direction from home.Four jurisdictions of law enforcement would investigate and search for the missing men. Psychics were brought in, and there were strange reports of sightings of the five from numerous people. One witness came forward with an incredible story of seeing the men disappear into the forest that night. Yet every lead came to a dead end. About four months after they vanished, four of the five men's remains were found some 12 miles from the car, with one discovered in a US Forest Service trailer with plenty of food and fuel to keep them alive for months.Once described as ‘Bizarre as hell', the case of the Yuba County Five has baffled law enforcement and the families of the missing men for over 45 years. Tony Wright has meticulously researched this case, earning himself the reputation of being one of the foremost authorities on the subject, and his conclusions are likely as close as anyone will come to making sense of this tragedy.BookBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

I've never heard anything like it, and it's chilling. My special guest joins me to discuss a case that still boggles the mind and seemingly will never be solved.
In 1978, five men disappeared in Northern California. Although some of their remains were eventually found, it only led to a more profound mystery, more questions, and countless theories about what happened to this group of men who've come to be known as the Yuba County Five. Join Mike and Morf as they discuss The Yuba County Five. Jack Huett, Ted Weiher, Bill Sterling, Jack Madruga, and Gary Mathias disappeared after a basketball game in 1978. Their car was found up a mountain road in the Plumas National Forest. None of the men were dressed for the cold weather. Four of the five men's bodies were found, but the discoveries only led to more questions. What happened to the men who became collectively known as The Yuba County Five?
