Summary

In this episode of Crime Bit with Danelle Hallan, we examine the strange death of 20-year-old Joseph Smedley after he vanished from Indiana University and was later found in Griffy Lake with a backpack filled with 66 pounds of rocks. What starts with a bizarre text message, cryptic notes, and a rushed missing person report quickly turns into a case filled with conflicting timelines, missing evidence, and more questions than answers. As the investigation unfolds, the bigger story becomes the fight for transparency. Between the lake pings, the untouched checks, the strange notes, the withheld case files, and a second forensic review raising serious concerns, the case becomes a haunting look at why Joseph’s family still believes the full truth has never been told.
