This Week's Pulse

Crime Junkie released a new episode on May 18, 2026, revisiting the 2016 disappearance of Christopher “Cole” Thomas in Benson, North Carolina.

Host Ashley Flowers focused heavily on the digital footprint left behind, noting that "their phones show continuous movement from Mount Olive all the way to Benson from 11:52 PM to 1:07 AM," before highlighting the strange inactivity that followed.

The investigation remains active, with Ashley Flowers urging potential witnesses to come forward because, as she stated, "somebody knows where Cole is, and it's time that they say it out loud before the data does the talking for them."

While the focus remains on the Benson Police Department and their ongoing mission, the podcast suggests that time is running out for anyone with information to cut a deal, implying that the technical evidence may soon surpass the need for human testimony.
