McStay Family Disappearance and Murder

The McStay Family of 4 disappeared on February 4, 2010. Summer McStay (age 43), her husband Joseph (aged 40), and their young sons Gianni (4) and Joseph Jr (3) were living in beautiful San Diego, CA home, and vanished. Had they taken a vacation and not told anyone? Surely they would not just leave their dogs outside. Did they cross the border to start a new life in Mexico? Summer had always said she would not go to Mexico. Who could have done this? Mike covers this story!
