The Last Ride, Episode 1: One deputy, two missing men
The Last Ride is true crime podcast about one of the most disturbing unsolved mysteries in Southwest Florida, the disappearances of Felipe Santos and Terrance Williams nearly 20 years ago after they were each last seen with then-Collier County sheriff's deputy Steven Calkins.
Santos, a 23-year-old Immokalee resident, was last seen in the back of Calkins’ patrol car after a minor traffic accident in October 2003 in North Naples. Three months later, 27-year-old Williams vanished after getting pulled over by Calkins, also in North Naples. Calkins has never been arrested or charged in the disappearances. No one has.
Episode 1 "One deputy, two missing men" begins the in-depth look into what a former federal prosecutor called the "the most unsettling case." This episode features the woman who was in the accident with Santos. She describes Calkins' reaction to Santos. We'll also hear from civil rights attorney Ben Crump and filmmaker Tyler Perry, who joined the fight for answers. Could something finally come to light to solve this tragic mystery?
