The Wallet on the Line: How Someone Misled an Entire Investigation

A wallet threaded eighteen inches below the Sable River held a driver's license with the name Todd Hunter - a deliberate planted clue that sent investigators chasing the wrong trail for five months. How did a single witness, one Sunoco receipt for $2.11, and a blue canvas duffel redirect an entire search away from where Todd actually was?

In this episode, we tell what happened from the moment Todd Hunter went missing to the way the investigation unfolded around that river wallet and the conflicting eyewitness and receipt evidence. You’ll hear where investigators focused their search, which details didn’t add up, and the unanswered question that kept the case stalled: who placed Todd’s license on that trotline, and why?

Person: Todd Hunter
Date: September 10-11, 2009
Location: Pembrook Circle; Sable River; Sunoco on Bellard Avenue
Status: Missing (search redirected for five months)
Witness: Douglas Crane, Route 14 bus driver

- Wallet threaded onto a trotline eighteen inches below the Sable River surface with Todd Hunter’s driver’s license visible.
- Sunoco receipt for $2.11 (water and gum) stamped 9:14 PM on September 10 found next to Todd’s keys on his kitchen counter.
- Todd Hunter was 46 years old and had worked eleven years at Vance Mechanical on Garrison Road.
- Todd paid his October bowling registration in advance on September 1 and bowled every Wednesday at Crestfield Lanes at 7 PM.
- Bus driver Douglas Crane reported seeing a man with a blue canvas duffel at the Maple Avenue stop at 7:20 PM, a detail later contradicted by the Sunoco clerk Kevin Sharpe in February.
