When Custody Orders Turn Deadly—The Tragic Case of Dylan Redwine
In this episode of Crisis & Consequences, we examine the heartbreaking case of Dylan Redwine, a 13-year-old Colorado boy who disappeared during a court-ordered Thanksgiving visit with his father in November 2012.
What initially appeared to be a missing child investigation quickly evolved into a complex homicide case involving a fractured family, disturbing evidence, and nearly a decade-long search for justice. As investigators uncovered evidence inside the home and Dylan's remains were discovered in the mountains near his father's property, suspicion increasingly focused on the person who was supposed to protect him.
We explore the troubled relationship between Dylan and his father, the evidence presented during the lengthy murder trial, and the emotional testimony from family members who spent years searching for answers. This case also raises difficult questions about custody arrangements, family court decisions, and how children caught in contentious divorces can become vulnerable.
This episode is a devastating reminder of the lasting impact of family violence and the long road many families travel in pursuit of truth and justice.
Content Warning: This episode contains discussions of child homicide, family violence, disturbing evidence, and trauma. Listener discretion is strongly advised.
