Maybe she wants stalked by a secret admirer. Maybe she did hear that conversation between the attorney and his client and instead of killing her they threatened her constantly and told her to leave or they would kill her and her family and that would explain the no forced entry because she left willingly or the attorney also had the keys and they left the book on that certain page to make it seem like a stalker did take her because people believed there was a stalker at one point. And they told her to leave her money to make it look more realistic, plus if they’re drug dealers they most likely have money so they gave her some to disappear. I could be wrong tho.

as much as i enjoy the idea of her just leaving the church (to quote shane, church church church) it seems odd for cynthia to fake all of the calls and paranoia leading up to her disappearance. based on my limited knowledge of this case, she seemed to be really struggling with paranoia from all of the scary phone calls and apparent stalking. I'm not sure how she could fake that, but I guess anyone going to church that much and planning on running away would have to be a good actress. she'd also have to fake the "I love you cynthia" note, which I simply don't think was this other guy, because you said there was no there cynthia who worked there. although that could be from the person she ran away with.... unless HE was who she ran away with. intriguing. idk I guess. that's why it's unsolved.
It’s me, I’m GW.
hey ryan shane can you make more paranomal investigating
What’s the best thing to wear to court? A lawsuit ! Sammy when we get in there you actually have to be serious
"A quiet obedient girl." I think that means she's been planing this for a long time like she's been planning to act nice so they think that she was not strong enough to leave her family if she was that obedient.
I realized George Washington took her
I feel like the fact that her romance book was left open on that certain page that she could of been leaving a clue to what happened to her, just a thought.
You guys need to make a hey demons poster please i have the shirt need poster please and thank you
19:55 Remember kids, if anyone ever wants to make Shane disappear, just put some rice in his mailbox
You should do the Camp Scott Murders of 1977. It's considered to be one of the most puzzling unsolved murders in American History.
The police never thought to call the theory 1 person back? Or maybe track them down
I kind of expected this to be solved after all this time. The episode aired on Unsolved Mysteries back in the day :(
what if some guy was obsessed with her and did end up kidnapping her and that was her talking on the phone but she was never found because the stalker got away with it idk that’s just my idea
boss makes a dollar i make a dime that's why i vanish on company time
If she was too much into church, maybe she punished herself for doing something wrong?
14:40 What’s the music there? I looked in the description and all I got was a sound library.
They wondered about security cameras. Not in 1981 at a strip mall. It was another time.

Wow
I checked Cynthia Anderson online and she is not attractive according to me.
Why's there no camera's
I'm a Christian and can confirm - too much church.
to be fair, that is a lot of church
why wasn't the boyfriend mentioned? He could've manipulated her into getting kidnapped honestly.
No signs of struggle usually means that she knew the unsub
"maybe you have somewhat of a detective brain" *nods in CC Tinsley*
I agree #3😊 also if she was being stalked/harassed by a creep who kept writing obnoxious messages on walls that may have been one of the contributing factors of something she wanted to get away from
Once you watch a few if these you get crazy Paranoid for a few Days
How did she get out if it was locked from inside??? I doubt she left on her own accord. She was most likely raped and killed
Also that theory explains the book page. It was her way of subliminally implanting a nefarious scenario in investigators minds.
Shane's hat and scarf suit him so well. Shane makes me happy. I wish I knew Shane irl. I feel like we'd be really good friends. Although I wouldn't feel cool enough to be his friend 🤣
Can you please do a video on Aysha Degree? She was a girl who disappeared in 2000
I think whoever kidnapped her was the person/friend who reccomended her the romance novel. She most likely got it from a friend or possibly a guy obsessed with her. Painted the letters and gave her the book then did the scene in the book. It was a romance novel right?
Finnaly at the comments. The save place
Did she spend the money on her bank? What were the initials of the guy who confessed to doing the graffiti?
I googled the Cook brothers bc I was curious and now I regret it. There are some sick and twisted things people in this world.
Ryan looks so different
Imagine being stalked amd killed by George Washington.
Hold up. Wasn't the watcher case from Bulivard
Also if she ran away, the book makes more sense - she would have been reading it, and would have known where the page was, and left it open there to lead the police away from the runaway theory
Whole lotta red
I believe it's her Father, we heard the way he spoke about her and how she was changing, she drifted away from church and he didn't like that his daughter didn't believe anymore, he got mad. If he was the one who took her and murdered her, it makes sense as to why he spent the time to turn to that specific page in the book, why there was no struggle, and why the doors were locked at the office. And he wouldn't alarm any nearby workers or stores because him and Cynthia could easily make it seem like they're just a normal father-daughter.

I was thinking the same thing too
I’m Christian and even that is too much church
It was Aliens
I thought yandere is not real.. It is totally real
great content I love that I can watch it on my own 😀
I'm Christian, but as soon as I hear "Christian fundamentalists" I immediately think she might've ran away or her parents orchestrated her murder depending on what was really going on there. It's certainly not uncommon for abuse to be going on in fundamentalist environments of any religion. Or her boyfriend did it, because goodness knows a lot of fundamentalist men are very toxic
I think it’s a mix. I think she was wanting to find a world away from her life, and she met a boy who charmed her and promised to take her away. When she realized that the man was sketchy, she started to ignore his calls and stop seeing him entirely. The man retaliated, and she got scared. Then one day she completely disappeared because the man finally threatened her with a high enough stake to get her to go willingly. The book might have been a clue that she herself left behind in order to spur an investigation.
I think she was abducted in the parking lot to be quite honest.
lotta church
Honey she just created fake crime scene and fled!
SHANE WHATS WITH UR HAIR FIX IT
Maybe it was the spirit of George Washington trying to send her a message.
A White House..GW Bush?!?!
What if the book was the main clue! Like the message was meant for someone else meaning it’s possible she started getting stalked around the time she started reading the book, the stalker was reading the book also and wanted to copy it and make one of his sick fantasies into a reality fallowing the book because like in the book Cynthia might have been kidnapped the same way as in the book and the telephone message was disturbing because it was recreating a telephone message from that book while she was reading the chapter or even page the message happens during. Maybe (if they didn’t already) if a cop or investigator read the book they would see that and then read a head for possible clues like if the protagonist was taken to a house like the panicked caller had described and if she was also being held in the basement and continue from there see if the protagonist was then taken to something like a park or, more grimly, a final destination. I feel like if I was the detective I would have looked more into the book clue because that was to much of a coincidence to not be a clue
am I the only one who saw in every video a mannequin with a suit on??☹️😳
With the book part, perhaps its because she was abducted and tried to tip the cops
A month-or-so late, I know, but what _should've_ been the *move* ??? . . . For science, of course.
theory 4 she was a lesbian
I knew Shane would say that it's *too much church* 😂😂😂
Good day sunshine
I don’t normally enjoy anything buzzfeed does but this is okay
my theory, she is in the book living as the antagonist working towards winning the love of the male lead. yeah i read way too many isekai manhwa's
I love that they are social distancing even when they probably have the resources to get those really quick (like 5 min) Covid test and make sure no one is sick on set. It sets a good example to us regular people who don't have that luxury. Thanks guys! Love the channel!
Boyle was last seen in his hometown of Marysville, Washington on November 4, 2012. He left his residence at 4:30 a.m. and never returned. The previous day, he'd been cited by law enforcement for a traffic offense, and he may have been distraught when he left home. His vehicle, a red 2006 Chrysler Pacifica with the Washington license plate number 169WNT, disappeared with him and has never been found; a photo of it is posted with this case summary. Boyle worked as the assistant girls' basketball coach at Marysville-Pilchuk High School at the time of his disappearance, and was also active in the football and baseball programs at middle and high school levels. He grew up in Everett, Washington, but had lived in Marysville for two decades prior to his disappearance; he was a well-liked, respected member of his community. Foul play is not suspected in Boyle's case, but his disappearance is out of character and his case remains unsolved.
She was sick of being a good church girl.
Y loved the goatman episode 🐐👹
This seems like another case of “religiously abusive parents who think they are doing the greater good but are actually being evil”
I think her dad killed her for trying to run away.
I do think it makes sense that she would run away. Maybe the calls made her scared. The combination of stress and heavy religious pressure and lack of sleep could have lead to paranoia or something similar. It might have all just pressured her to the point of breaking, and she faked her own disappearance.
If she did run away, it would also explain why her book was turned onto the perfect page to make people think she was kidnapped.
the audio glitched at some point and now I'm terrified
I miss this two. 😍
FOr tHe PoSTmOrTEm
What I live in Ohio
I live in Toledo, Ohio but I never heard about her
The available smash remarkably join because beech inferiorly zip down a weak beaver. wonderful, gifted jeans
k but honestly, shane and Ryan remind me of laurens and hamilton
I thought I was going to watch a mystery; 2 minutes in I realize, I can't listen to these dudes throughout, the whole mystery. But, I guess that's BuzzFeed for you.
she could have left because of the phone calls leaving without a trace would throw the stalker off track and they couldn't call or find her anymore
Quitting a basic white collar job to attend Bible college XD which is worse I wonder lol
George Washington
Living in Toledo, with my In-laws living less than a mile from East Manhattan, this is quite possibly the most chilling thing unsolved video I've ever seen. As a fellow Toledoan, If you're out there Cynthia, I hope you're well, and if you've passed on I wish peace on you.
I think even super religious people can agree... that is a LOT of church.
Is the background real? My dad has been asking💀
I've seen two theories like this and im gonna add on to it. Cynthia's female lover called her at the office and they both set it up to look like she was getting threatening and creepy calls from unknown. Then she lied about the night terrors to lead them on the path that she was kidnapped, then the book thing was Cynthia's doing. Now they're living in a cottage spending their days baking and cooking and singing with the animals in the woods.
Ryan: "That's my number one theory. That's my Worth It winner." Steven is quaking
As a Christian, I can confirm: That's a lotta church

I too am a Christian, and yeah that’s far too much church I would loose my mind.
16:52 maybe you slowly pull out the money in smaller amounts and store it somewhere and when you run away you take all thath money you have bean hiding
I luv you guys I'm so addictive to this channel along with shane Dawson's conspiracy theories... Xoxoxoxo from Harlan KY ❤
Didn't know a young edward norton worked for buzzfeed.
Church sounds weird now
As someone from Toledo, there were rumors that her father was sexually assaulting her and that she had confided in people of the church and no one believed her. So she fled the state and hitchhiked up to the UP to start a new life. Not much traction or evidence of this. I heard it while attending the University of Toledo. My grandma went to church with the Anderson family and always told us that their family was a bit odd. She also felt that they didn't do very much to look for her after she disappeared.
"alotta church, im bleaching my hair and plucking my eyelashes out" HAHAHAHAHA
My aunt is pretty religious and makes my cousin go to church or do church events on Sunday’s, Friday’s,Wednesday’s and a couple Saturday’s- I see that as too much- this girl is overloading with church
:O
No investigating the boyfriend?
Waiting for them to pull a "try guys" and start their own channel away from buzzfeed hell

Ooh hot heathens lol
When the dad used the word “obedient” instead of well behaved... that creeped me out
watching this at 4am was not a great idea
