Missing Mini #2 - Andre Julian Moten Jr. AKA Dre
Memento Mori
11/30/20 • 6 min
Andre Julian Moten Jr, also known as Dre was 22-years old, when he was reported missing on Friday morning, October 18, 2019 in Humble, Texas. It has been a little over a year now and he is still missing. He would now be 23 years old. His birthday passed on November 3rd, it came and went without a single call or message from Dre. The people that know and love him say there is no way he wouldn't contact them on his birthday. His family last saw him walking out of their Humble home on the 18500 block of Timber Forest Drive in the early morning of Oct. 18th. He left his car at home. He was living with his family there so there is no reason why he just wouldn't return home. If you have any information or if you believe you have seen him then please call Harris County, Missing Persons Unit, (713)755-7427 Or the Texas Department of Public Safety at (512) 424-5074.

#9 Mark Hacking
Memento Mori
12/31/20 • 26 min
Mark Hacking is the picture-perfect example of the age-old idiom "Devil in Disguise." On the outside, he portrays the image of a concerned husband. Weeping and pleading to the press to help him find his wife after she went jogging and never returned. On the inside, Mark knew exactly where his wife was. His lies would soon come to a head and all would be exposed. It just goes to show you really never know what someone is capable of. Even if you think you're the one person that knows them best.
