    On May 27th, 1999. A man named Dale Williams left his auto body shop to go and help a person in need. Over 20 years later, he still remains missing. The circumstances that surround his disappearance read like something out of a crime novel with frustrating dead ends. This is the story of Dale Williams.

      It's really strange to wrap your head around. My Dad passed in a car accident (on his way to work one morning) when he was 28 (my Mom was 26, & I was just barely 2). At 26 I realized my Mom had a child & was a widow at my age (it gave me a whole new appreciation for how hard that must've been). When I turned 28 it was... kind of surreal.
      It goes against the way we think to realize that he just... never got any older. He'll always be 28 to everyone who knew him, no matter how much older we all get, his clock stopped & ours didn't.
      And you're right, it does remind me to appreciate the time that I have in life that so many others don't.

      I suppose u can always look at these from 2 points of view.. 1.. Vulgar entertainment.. True crime watching has hit an all time high in 2022.. and its big business here on youtube if you have a successful channel.. When u look at this way.. u feel that a phone call to the child of a disappeared person is a little insensitive .. BUT!!! on the other hand.. the OTHER way u can look at it is.. the story never goes COLD!!! There is always someone learning about the story.. and ONE DAY!!! WHO KNOWS!!! The RIGHT person may see this video.. and it never hurts that the facts are 100% correct.. so in that case its doing more of a symbiotic service to both the channel and the story..

    As to the "why did he stop in person to tell the woman that he had to go jump someone's car?" question, it was 1999 when he disappeared. Cell phones weren't super popular, and given that he left almost immediately after the call, he probably forgot to call her to let her know he wouldn't be able to work on her car right away, but gave a crap about people's trust.

      Cell service was horrible in 1999 especially in a rural area. Not many had cell phones in 99 too. And I lived close to NYC. My mom (realtor) and my Grandpa (real estate company owner and agent) was the only people I knew in 99 with a cell phone. Even in our area, cell service barely worked. It was a huge gray flip phone with a extendable antenna. 2001/2002 is when people were beginning to own a cell phone. Those brick Nokia phones

And like others are bringing up, service was way less reliable in general, let alone in more rural places.

    i can confirm that its not impossible they were transfered to the garage by a AAA agent if there were membership issues. At that point, you are SOL in a rural area and basically have to call random local garages hoping they can help.
    So i can also confirm we get a lot of people who get angry if the driver wants to tow the vehicle to their shop because a jump wont fix it.
    In some world i could imagine this sort of altercation taking place on site and it not being planned out.

      I have a feeling that while that ex husband may not have done it himself, he had someone do it for him. and had a woman call in for a jump (knowing Dale doesn't have a tow truck) in order to set dale up and get him in a rural area alone

      @@masstv9052 Chain pulls aren't too hard. The fact he had a toolbox bolted in his truck tells me he spent a lot of time using it for mechanical work. That model of truck looks simple, but it's got a hefty pulling capacity. It could pull anything it's size or smaller that doesn't have a heavy load attached. This of course requires the vehicle being pulled to have four working wheels and steering, but it isn't too hard if you have that.
      As for why? Well... if you're not near a full service garage, you might have to wait hours for someone to get to you if it is a full service garage coming to help. A more local garage, even if not equipped with a tow truck, will save time.

    Dale reminds me of my grandfather. He was also a really kind guy who loved cars and would do anything to help his community. He brightened the entire community and now the small town that he lived in always knows they can go to his garage for tools or whatever they need, since my family there keeps it all in the same spot.
    He kept toys for all the neighborhood kids, who always knew they had a safe spot at their house. He loved his town and the people in it, and would truly do anything to help them.
    My cousins even go down to his garage to play with the train set he was working on before he passed.
    I hope Dale's family can get the closure they deserve- it would be truly devastating to lose someone like this and never find out what happened to them. My heart goes out to the family and what they've been going through, I can't imagine it.

I agree that a majority of the true crime community is a bunch of weird people that kind of get off on it and more than anything and just like the idea of hearing about creepy shit but not in the autistic, special interest in the macabre kind of way but in a, "enjoys it in a way that I cannot properly articulate on RUclips" kinda way. I personally do it as a form of escapism from my OCD and (actively being VERY medicated) anxiety because my brain constantly creates such terrifying egodystonic thoughts that I kind of just use it as a way to calm my brain down when it goes on too long of a stretch of just feeding me horrifying thoughts with no provocation. A lot of these stories really are just horrifying and terrible things happening to innocent people who committed the crime of being in a place at a time that the universe apparently decided they shouldn't have been and so the only fitting punishment for such a non-crime is a lot of murder

      Cellphones were around, but still fairly rare. Over the next few years, starting right after the Y2K bullshit, they took off.

      @@tonee1000 Hi Tonee, God bless your heart. I live in the Nucla area. My interest in your Dad's case has to do with me living in the area, and not being from here, I don't feel safe in the area, especially with a murderer on the loose, getting away with it for so many years, when it seems like most people know who it is and have even told me the name of the murderer, but, not being from here, I forgot it. Did the lady caller have an foreign accent? I talked to a man who told me he was questioned by the FBI for weeks, maybe he was lying to me, but I think he knows what happened or is even involved, and he had a wife from eastern Europe who left him. My daughter was born on 5/27/99, that blew me away. Because an accent, he wouldn't have to ask who it was. Also, if he helped her escape, and she came back for stuff, and her car "broke down"...Did the call come from Paradox? a home? The store? or from out of state?

      Giving a voice to the family and loved ones that have experienced the loss is the most considerate thing you can do.

    I am curious and do wish you had asked if she knew what the abusive husband's alibi was, and if she thought it was good enough to eliminate him completely. Nothing else makes sense and in a small town it is so hard to keep secrets for this long.

    The guy who threatened Dale having an alibi doesn't mean he had nothing to do with it. He could've payed someone to kill him and he could've gone somewhere public during the murder and boom, rock solid alibi. "It couldn't have been him, he was at this place all day". Obviously we don't know what his alibi was, but if he didn't commit the crime himself, having an alibi doesn't mean he's innocent. I think he's probably buried somewhere in the middle of nowhere and then they dumped the truck in the river. His window being "wrong" means someone else might've driven the car at least for a bit.
    But having said that, removing the missing persons flyers wouldn't really accomplish much. If this town is as small as they say, then you wouldn't even need a flyer. You just hear Dale Williams from the car shop went missing and that's all you need.

    Wow amazing! Thank you so much for this! You did amazing interviewing her. I found everything she had to say very interesting. I truly hope that a resolution can be found for this. It sounds to me like the investigators may have quite a bit more info than they are releasing due to the ongoing investigation. I feel she felt adamant that it truly was a set up and this was a pre meditated planned thing. She was also very open to other possibilities, but I found it super interesting how against the idea that it was some random crime by some random person. I really hope that they find closure and they catch who did it.

    Excellent video I believe that ex husband had something to do with it . Also I believe police think so too. Unfortunately whatever his alibi is police can’t contradict it and no evidence linking him to truck etc so can’t arrest him.

      Yep. It's definitely gonna be a leading theory. Ive not done any research, but there wasn't any talk about the women they helped get out of town. Did she disappear? Was she the alibi for the ex-husband? Having looked at tons of true crime, it's usually someone much closer to home than people think.
