The Road That Hid a Ring: Poker, Lies, and a Pipe Burial

A county road swallowed a sealed steel pipe for thirty-two years before a ring and three initials - M.A.D. - pointed straight to a missing man; what exactly was buried beneath Route Nine and who had the power to hide it in plain sight? The discovery included a Glenview State class ring from 1971 and remains buried four feet, eleven inches below the shoulder - but how did no one connect the road, the contractor, and the last poker game for decades?
In this episode, we lay out the sequence of discoveries, the original missing-persons investigation, and the public records that finally linked a burial under Route Nine to the people who maintained that stretch of road; how did those records answer the question that went unanswered for thirty-two years?
