So very pleased to have you back, Harmin! We sure do love your work and adore you too. Be blessed and well in all things!

[@pattieprophet7987]

You are cared about ! ❤ !!!

[@Catherine3296]

He’s been back a while, done a few other videos

[@bonniekaye]

*I can't understand how they don't suspect foul play!* *Very odd!* 😭

[@absatwell8163]

Because there is no body and no DNA/evidence to say otherwise.

[@andrewknaff9220]

If there was no sign of foul play then that is most likely why it isn’t considered a criminal case with no detectives assigned to it. Great video and glad to see you posting again Harmon!

[@TommyTheCat42]

Greeting from RI Harmon. I was in an episode with Ron of Faces of The Forgotten awhile back and I haven’t talked to him since October but he speaks very highly of you! I don’t comment much but I wanted to let you know that your videos are very calming to me given the subject material and it really eases my PTSD when few things do. Thank you for that, I think it’s the flow of the video and the way you tell these stories. Safe travels my friend

[@stephanieann622]

It’s neat to hear someone else feel the same way I do about Harmin. One of his first videos I watched was actually about a good friend of mine, she was murdered by her estranged husband. He did a fantastic job with the story and being very respectful to everyone else involved. I also have ptsd and his videos are always my favorite too❤

[@InfamousCrimeLocations]

@TommyTheCat42 Hey that means a lot to me!! Thanks so much. Ron is a great guy and someone I admire. I really enjoyed filming with him and hope to do more with him in the future. 🫡

[@patbowman6723]

Please be careful. The view is stunning. Thanks for all you do.

[@laurencraigels]

Poor sam, such a beautiful spot too, I hope her family gets some closure

[@TravelWithLisaMH]

Great job Harmin 👍🏻👏🏻

[@MichaelAllan-mh9fh]

Crazy story, dangerous. What I have learned after hiking 8 years, never go alone. Your best story yet. Believe after all this time she is dead.

[@somersetflower]

Thanks Harmin for another great video. Please take care of yourself !! Sam may have fallen of course and suffered hypothermia but its all very strange. Why would the police stop investigating it doesn't make sense does it ? Anyway keep up the good work we all enjoy your investigations and the scenery was beautiful in this one. Look after yourself. Janice 👵 🇬🇧 x

[@InfamousCrimeLocations]

Yeah all fair and valid points. It is odd that police automatically say it's not criminal and won't even do any more searches for her. It's like they gave up before it really began

[@kaylacolgan]

I love Crime videos. Hello from Long Island, NY

[@leesashriber5097]

Welcome back Harmin!!!! Definitely a sad and odd case. I don't think I could ever hike alone. I've seen too many horror movies. 😬 Did you do this video as a two parter? You're saying a year ago and seemed we're jumping back in time to get the details. 🤔 I cannot phathom why the police would say no criminal case is active. Sadly, it does sound like she could have fallen. It's easy to get lost and/or injured. Please keep us updated as hopefully, new details emerge. 🙏❤️🙏

[@christopherfoster3744]

Hi ! Because she must have left a bad note somewhere 😢😢

[@theresewebb229]

Awesome video. The scenery is absolutely beautiful. It's so sad that even a year later and no one has tried to look for her or her remains. R.I.P Sam

[@apocyldoomer]

He said it was 6 years ago, in 2018, that is Not 1 year ago!

[@jeremiahallyn4603]

Did you make this video in 2019? I thought you kept saying she disappeared a year ago. Either way, I really hope nothing horrible happened to her, but at this point, it's been nearly 6 years since she vanished 🙏

[@Sharonhudson8874]

So is the case a cold case and I wonder if they will continue the investigation

[@joycehook4832]

I was wondering the same thing. Was this just a repost of 5 years ago or what? I guess in a way if it is it's good to bring it to light again sp if anyone sees this and knows anything Sometimes passing time makes people talk when they are faced with reminders. Thanks Harmon ❤

[@DMR4554]

It should be criminal! Sam’ s family worked so hard to find her. We have a suspicion who did it. 🤬

[@sammyday3341]

Nah.

Hi Harmin good to see a video

[@ShabanandHailey]

Very sad case Harmin....I feel scared for you sometimes going all alone on these journeys wish you safety and peace...Prayers.

[@adrianaturner6246]

Missed your videos! Good to see you!

[@Thunder_Dome45]

Probably wanted a selfie with a bear cub and the mama was like "nope".

[@InfamousCrimeLocations]

It's possible! My guess is abducted or got lost and died off the trail where no one could find her. 🤔

[@brandisuperstar]

This is tragic! I can't stress enough about hiking with a partner. Though a lot of people do solo hikes, it just means if something goes awry there is nobody with you to help or go get help and your chances of becoming a missing person greatly increase! Im praying for some closure on this one 🙏

[@wlphantom]

I don’t think anyone should be hiking those trails alone. Too many nuts out there.

[@pamelavincent6937]

Good to see you

[@galaxyboi22]

I hope she's found 😢🌹

[@daveazimoveagleeye8495]

I feel you on that one my brother and definitely interesting one 😱

[@InfamousCrimeLocations]

Super bizarre right!?? I think the possibility of abduction is there but she could have fallen and no one found her body. 🤷‍♂️

[@aimeemoore1094]

So sad. Such a beautiful young lady.

[@V.C.88]

What a beautiful trail. Life is indeed very precious

[@rosiegroovy]

A bear or cougar could have gotten her too. 😢 Great video for Earth Day though. Beautiful place.

[@leslieross8708]

I wonder if the lady you talked to had already received calls from others asking abthe status of her case so she already had a standard form answer for you. That said, without her body, how can the case just be closed with no one working on it? Whether it was criminal or accident, she still needs to be found. Any possibility she ran off & started a new life? If so, maybe police found her and she requested they don't tell anyone so they know there's no case there? Just a thought. Good to see you, my friend! Great work as usual ❤

[@LivinglifeRFKB]

Confused by your video. What year did you film this?

[@cherylm9770]

Or possibly a Cougar or Bear Attack ! We have Both here. Was this a lost video? Great Coverage, Harmin 👍 👌

[@MarieWoodward-fs8pq]

Hi Harmin. I was wondering if maybe she slipped and fell and the snow covered up her body. I don't think at the high altitude the snow would've melted much. I would never go hiking alone even if I did it numerous times in the past. Makes you wonder if she did slip or did someone indeed abduct her. I don't think we will ever know. Thank you Harmin for sharing and for all the work you put into all these videos. Safe travels my friend

RIP Sam! Harmin, really enjoyed your video! So sad that they don't know what happened to her! Long time no see!

[@max3835]

What other cases are you referring to that happen on this same highway? I'm curious to see those videos.

[@TheJewelsg88]

Had to check out the channel. Oddly enough, one of my friends was good friends with Sam. It sounded like foul play. Such a frustrating situation.

[@InfamousCrimeLocations]

Hey julie!! 👋 Thanks so much for checking the channel out. 😀

[@sammyday3341]

Thank you, Harmon. If ever in central KY, I recommend looking into the 1973 murders of Reverend John Barnes and his two children. I was a kid when this happened in Lexington and I remember how it scared everyone. The crime site(s) and the graves are within about 45 minutes of each other. A shocking story that shook even seasoned police.

[@InfamousCrimeLocations]

Hey thank you so much for the suggestion! I will definitely save it and add it to my list. Hopefully in the near future

[@denise9721]

Great video …Hope they find her one day so heartbreaking Feel for her family Maybe they are waiting for the one break to make an arrest ?

[@nancylovett2399]

Yay Harmin! My favorite asmr 😂 honestly, I think it's the sound of your voice with the background noises. It's so relaxing.

[@patricioruiz-tagle9706]

Harman!! Ive been following your videos for a while now. I live in Chile and although we speak spanish here my english is enough to understand you. I hope this message finds you well. Greetings from Chile

[@SugLV75]

Hello from Las Vegas! Thank you for the video!

[@anthonypatience5689]

You should come to Atlanta and do the Atlanta child murder locations. The places where he dumped bodies. Also the Brian Nichols courthouse shooting. There is also the Mark Barton office mass shooting. There's centennial Olympic Park where the bomb went off, unabomber locations, Eric Rudolph abortion clinic bombing locations...a whole bunch of stuff in Atlanta. Also, it would be cool to see more crime locations rather than listening to the story walking through a graveyard. Love the channel 👍🏽

[@katiesear1485]

❤ your channel! I agree it is very strange..like a coverup😮

[@mitch5077]

Hey Harmin, I enjoyed all the extra inros and outros and music you put into this video, made it gripping.

[@sallykohorst8803]

Thanks for your video. Yes something is suspicious.

[@anneclarecheah6487]

Welcome back Harmin. 👍😊

[@Juliantreks]

Also, for people saying “bears” - we don’t have grizzlies in WA we have black bears, and they tend to run away. Pumas are actually a more likely scenario but also extremely rare.

[@gavinmallett9331]

Such beautiful scenery, shame the reason you are there is so sad. Keep up the great work Harmin :D

[@Lady05V]

I am so glad to see you back. You did a fantastic job on this video. Thank you for all of your work ❤

[@sandybarron-perrault1967]

Great video Harmin. Very sad that she has not been found. I think the police should have an open case because like you said she could of met with foul play. Because it is unknown what happened to her they should have an open investigation because there could be clues out there that just have not been found. If she fell wouldn't someone have found her remains? Even though it's been 6 years they should at least have missing person flyers up along the trail. It's great to have you back Harmin. U look forward to your videos.

I made a video as well about Samantha Sayers. This case has baffled me for years!

[@marylynnkotis7246]

Please do not go hiking alone.

[@nanmattingly6402]

Harmin, my friend, so good to see you. Poor Sam, I wonder if the trail she took back down was less travelled. If so, she could have fallen in an area with few hikers, therefore if she went off trail and fell, no one would find her. OR, she was abducted on that "back down" trail. Sad. Thanks Harmin, stay safe please.

[@Erelevant1]

Do you ever hear or see spooky things doing these? What is the weirdest things that's ever happened giving us these wonderful videos? I would love it if you did a little paranormal researching at some of these places.

[@adamantawhitfoot2353]

It was six years ago she disappeared, right? I don't think it's that weird but yeah, it would make sense to have her poster up at the trailhead where she went missing.

[@JenniferM0531]

Missing 411… that’s what I think. On that note, be weary doing your own investigations out there.

[@zenawarrior7442]

Did she have cancer or did the bald head on purpose? Odd pic of her in the jacket. Sad case, hope they reopen. Thanks Harmin😊

[@anna27446]

She had Alopecia, a disease that causes hair loss

[@InfamousCrimeLocations]

Yeah she had alopecia

[@zenawarrior7442]

@@InfamousCrimeLocations Thanks...👍

[@latasha195]

Stay safe on your travels as you seem to have everything that you need! This is a strange case for sure! How could she just vanish without a trace? No body or any of her items found? No car? I pray for closure for her family! They deserve answers!

[@seattlescofflaws]

Thanks Harmin

[@sammyday3341]

I think the bears had better hiking skills.

[@2007cgarza]

While we all of course should be able to hike alone whereever we want, please always go with a friend or club. Not only because of this scenario, but in case you roll an ankle, etc.

[@Chickentender77922]

I read in a news article that the search and rescue team spent 22 days looking for Sam and turned up nothing. To not find a single clue, not any of her belongings, makes me believe this is a criminal case.

[@krystenburkhardt-hansyn]

But she never made it down the mountain. She either had something set up to where she was going to “disappear” or she vanished. It happens every day in national parks. This is definitely is a David Paulides 411 case.

[@DK-gy7ll]

Abducting someone on a trail and somehow dragging them all the way back to the trailhead would be very difficult, and on a popular trail like this the chances of being seen by somebody would be very high. It would be far easier to snatch somebody off a city street.

[@jesusisGod1434]

They must think she willingly disappeared! Yeah like that could be it!

[@pattieprophet7987]

WHY , BY HERSELF !! ?? !! 😢💔

[@bryrye4545]

6:34 actually, it is a 7 mile 'out-and-back' trail, meaning the entire trail from start to finish totals 7 miles or so.

[@bryrye4545]

Trail grades range from -48% up to 44% other parts of the trail even higher, because of scramble reasons. elevation grade. It's a sick/steep trail!

[@bryrye4545]

One more thing: If you plan to go out to the field to where these missing people ended up, the. May I recommend to you a map, particularly 'AllTrails'. At the very least, one is able to look at the route of the trail they plan to go on. Physical maps don't hurt either, so REI or any other outdoor "outfitter" may sell as well. Best of luck and this was a touching story..

[@wellston2826]

There he is! Hello Harmon.

[@fds3786]

Hey Harmin 👋

[@houseofsolomon2440]

The sheriff's office didn't categorize or label the case as 'criminal' due to a lack of either a) direct evidence. b) circumstantial evidence. That's not to say they don't have their suspicions. There's just nothing solid enough to work with ~ (all of this is just my singular little opinion) ◇

[@stephenmonchak104]

I would suggest that you research a bit more about that day. Prior to that day and in the weeks leading up to that day. There is a much more involved story. There are a lot of curves and extremely strange factors regarding her disappearance. I spent countless hours on that mountain looking for Sam. We searched every crevasse, body of water, trail, cave, etc...

[@stephenmonchak104]

You also have the location of the trail incorrect. However, Sam would have had to have lost her mind to go down the backside of that mountain.

[@InfamousCrimeLocations]

I did the best I could with the information I had. My apologies

[@Zorazora1234]

What you suggesting happen to her. The timeline of this video is off. maybe it’s a re-post

[@stephenmonchak104]

@@Zorazora1234 Hard to say. I try to keep my theories to myself. We searched as a group and there were many other groups doing the same. We all hit different areas of the mountain and surrounding areas. Not a shred of evidence was found of her. Looking at emails and her interactions from the time leading up to her going missing is where we were intrigued. She was not a happy person. Her world had crumbled in many ways. Add that in with the fact that she was an experienced hiker and had done that particular hike many times.... We had to question. I have no firm indication as to what actually happened to her.

I can't imagine what poor Samantha's poor family must be going through not knowing what happened on that day to their Beautiful daughter it really must be so hard living each day not knowing if your daughter is lying out there on that trail or if someone has done something to her i just wish that if she is out there someone comes across her body and her poor family can finally lay her to rest it really breaks my heart just thinking about her and her poor family as well i really do hope one day they finally get the answers to what happened to their poor daughter Samantha.. i think that maybe it was a accident that happened to her maybe she lost her footing and fell down hit her head of a rock 🪨 or something.. this is so sad 😭

[@jerrimichael7561]

Could she have fallen somewhere particularly since she returned on the back side. I was worried you would get lost. I am glad you’re back. Why do people do these things by themselves. Not a good idea.
