    “ I don’t want her in a grocery bag, I want a body bag”. This shows that they really see it as a person… not just remains or bones… they have so much respect!

      just to have something to get closer is better than not knowing..
      as PMC/SOP vet myself I was on a OP in another country and the clinic daughter went missing and waited for a ransom call and nothing came up after 48 hours, me and 3 others got special promises for all involved at time to stay on to search and recover her 96 hours later again nothing found and it's been 25 years since and it still shakes me to my core beliefs not knowing what..
      every year for 1 week me and that team go back in country to to ask and listen for new 411 on her were abouts are..
      this just one of many things I live with to today..

      Watching the last one when her sister was telling about how she found out Carey had never been listed as a missing person for all those years made me so angry on her behalf, I can't imagine what she felt finding out no one had ever even looked for her or thought she needed looking for. They put her down as a welfare check but clearly no one ever followed up on that. Negligence. It turned out to (seemingly) be a tragic accident, but imagine if something bad had been done to her (kidnap, homicide, etc) and no one in the police ever even looked. How many others out there have fallen through the same cracks?
      It sounds like the kids dad maybe had custody, given the way her sister spoke about her coming to the party. IDK their circumstances, but I don't understand why he wouldn't have pushed for an investigation into her disappearance on his kids' behalf (and to cover his own ass). Was he afraid people would blame him so he just ignored it? And those poor kids growing up with all kinds of rumours.
      When they found that bike - clearly meant to be her son's birthday present - that was what broke me. She had either just been to pick it up or was on her way to the party. Heartbreaking. It's so sad and surprising no one saw her go in the water, but perhaps the causeway wasn't as busy in the early 90s.
      I had no doubt she was down there from the moment they found the car on sonar right after find those old birthday balloons (it was like a sign). So sad seeing the car break apart, and I was angry that forensics didn't even seem to try to recover her afterwards. It was the confirmation when they found some of her that finished me off.

      I wasn't diagnosed with PTSD until I was 32 years old, but among other things kids shouldn't have to see is someone you know being recovered from water after any period of time. My family had a small marina on a river that docked a couple dozen boats and dry focked a couple dozen more. It was really a place where friends of the family came to enjoy the summer water skiing and fishing or camping out. Long story short, I was 10 if I remember correctly when my father's good friend and my 1st "steady girlfriend's" Dad went missing from his establishment up the road a ways and was believed to have come to our marina late at night. Members had keys. Unfortunately his sister was the one to see him float up from under our gas dock. I had to help pull him in so the current didn't take him.😣😥So young and it was so devastating for his family. I'll never forget what a human body looks like after being in a river for nearly a week. I'd probably be OK to do find a vehicle, but I can promise everything after that takes a toll on you if you're a person with any kind of empathy or compassion. I couldn't do it. I'm too empathic and feeling what their familys feel is not something I want to have in my heart. I've already had enough heartbreak for several lifetimes. That's why I give these fellas the utmost respect. It reminds me that there are still people out there that do God's work without haggling on a price first. ❤🙏♾️✝️

      I was worrying about same issue, as a former advocate who worked in disaster area for 6 months . Can’t help others if you don’t care for your own mental health, and take care of YOUR family. I saw marriages dissolve due to “survivor guilt” of Relief workers, after they returned home after hurricane katrina … you need to make sure you create “recovery” times after each Recovery of Deceased. “It” builds up and knocks you Down when you least will expect it. PTSD can happen even with just a few. Hugs

I have to say I was born and raised in Hunt Co and I know of another particular missing persons case that they’d probably run off anyone trying to assist with it/not welcome any help!!!

    When I first discovered this channel a couple years ago, car recoveries were only really beginning (atleast being featured and posted) and I remember thinking how amazing it was for these dive teams to volunteer their resource, time and skill...what a difference they are making in the world at their own costs, true heroes.
    I remember seeing the evolution from the channel going from a hobby search dives into detailed, well produced, recoveries and the subscriber counting growing and everyone involved finding purpose on their lives. I went away from the channel and internet in general for a bit as I was busy and focused on finding my own purpose and journey. I've now rediscovered the channel and am blown away. And ironically it coincides with my life a little bit. Last time I saw these guys they were hobby divers using their skills trying to find purpose and start something and make a difference in the world, and I was doing the same exact thing in my own way. I've reconnected with the channel and they're all well established HEROS now. I went back to school and became a first responder and will be celebrating a year as an emt in a few months. When I started that journey and career change, I was a down and out unemployed, over weight, chain smoking 30 yr old with nothing but mess ups to show for my life, watching channels like this so inspired by ppl coming together and using their hobbies and skills to change people's lives for the better, with compassion and love and fuel and motivation. Like these guys, i found purpose using learned skills to help other people. They didn't achieve their dreams alone and I surely didn't either. If we all just helped and supported each other even a little bit...think of all the heroism, compassion and help we could offer one another. Thank you AWP for all the inspiration you provide regular ole folks and carrying the message of love and compassion, those two things will always get us through. And, congrats on where this channel and project has brought you guys. Its amazing.

    *My respect to this team, and to the sheriff here in cooperating!* Unfortunately that's rare, and most agencies will refuse help -- in fact the more successful & effective it is, the more likely LE are to refuse it. Why? In a nutshell, because it makes them look bad (if they're honest about it -- if they're less than honest, they'll trot out some bs about not wanting to encourage "vigilantism" or "amateur detectives"). I come from a family of law enforcement and military going back many generations, so I've heard this first hand, and certainly I don't mean it to be a condemnation of police. Especially not of the 99% of average cops who don't get to make those policy decisions.
    The simple fact is, they have a high caseload to deal with, and more recent cases tend to take precedent. They also lack the manpower, time and budget to pursue cold cases. And the official agencies are the ones who must answer to the public when someone isn't found for decades and a team like this goes in and achieves it in days or hours. And folks forget that sonar, fancy expensive tech and easy access to diving didn't exist when most of these cases went cold. Be that as it may, it's very petty and self-serving for LE to refuse effective aid like this. _Again my serious respect to the sheriff here in accepting aid without hesitation. That is truly serving the People._

      Same boat with you here! I found out about these guys through another RUclipsr who mentioned AWP having found the girl in CA (I know her name, but I feel terrible if I butcher the spelling), so I started watching and have been enjoying how sobering, heartbreaking, and impactful these journeys are -- both solved and currently still unsolved. The Samantha Hopper find broke me apart. Seeing her mother still burdened by the guilt of not having watched both children that night for 23 years was one of the hardest things I've ever watched in another human being. Giving that family the closure they needed is the definition to me of "healing the soul."

    I'm not sure if anyone else noticed but at a little before 18:30 as Jared's getting ready to dive down again you can see a monarch butterfly fly between Doug and Jared and then just over Jared's left shoulder you can see 2 butterflies flying around chasing each other, playing. They say when you see butterflies then a loved one is near. I believe one of the 2 in this video was Carey. And that she was there guiding Jared as he recovered a jaw bone just after the butterflies where flying around him.. Just my opinion. Please keep up the wonderful if sometimes heart breaking, emotional work you gentlemen do to help bring family's the closure they so need.

      Hunt County doesn't have the funds for looking into 30 yr old missing persons cases. They probably have to depend on other agencies for any dive teams. The lake itself is patrolled by Texas Parks and Wildlife, who might have individuals that dive, but no trained dive team. Lake Tawakoni is one of the largest lakes in the state.

      There was only one law enforcement agency (or officer) that I take issue with and that was the Nick Allen case. Didn't care for the snub of the dive team either.
      Otherwise, agencies have a lot of limitations, chain of custody and other potential crime scene issues, lack of funds for searches, equipment, training, other cases, safety protocols, etc.
      They should all be welcoming this team who's soul mission is to bring answers to families. They now have a lot more experience in search and recovery than any agency when it comes to water. They would still have any possible crime scene issues as far as who actually physically does the recovery but .....

    I'm finding the interactions with the police are becoming the most moving parts of these videos. The Sheriffs are responsible for providing answers and they feel that responsibility. With limited budgets and no personal expertise to question their own divers abilities they are somewhat helpless. You can hear the relief in their voices that they have a resource with proven skills to search as thoroughly as humanly possible.
    It's incredible that they have taught themselves and taught themselves to a standard higher than established police training protocols. I imagine a large part of the difference is the sheer passion to succeed.

    This is my favorite AWP video. I remember the agony on Jared’s face when the contents of the car poured out into the water. This was redemption time for Jared. I agree with Josh that not all the kids believed that their mom was in the car when it was found 30 years later. Poor kids never knew what happened to their mom just that she never showed up for a son’s birthday party. This was a redemption video for Jared and AWP, and for Carrie’s family. To carefully separate car parts from bone fragments was so respectful of the entire team because they believed as their leader does that AWP brings closure to families who have lost loved ones. The debris field was quite vast and to dive fully geared up looking for evidence in murky water was daunting to say the least….but the team successfully completed their task. Did I say this is my favorite video by AWP…God Bless AWP for persistence in bringing closure for her family. 🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️
