    Sometimes people get so caught up in their personal situations that they become overwhelmed. Financial pressures, marital difficulties and employment troubles can all contribute to life feeling out of control.

    In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast, we discuss two separate cases where men may have faked their own deaths in order to escape the lives they were living.

    • In August 2024, Wisconsin man Ryan Borgwardt (44) told his wife of 20+ years that he was going kayaking. The couple have three children together. Ryan’s wife raised the alarm when he did not return. His overturned kayak and a life jacket were found floating in the lake. Authorities became so convinced that he was not in the lake, they started investigating other avenues. They discovered that Ryan got a new passport, purchased airline gift cards and had been communicating with a woman online in Uzbekistan.

    • Ryan Flynn aka Ryan Roth has been accused of stealing thousands of dollars over the years - including from his own grandmother. Ryan was known to set up fake charities, raise funds and then dissolve the organizations to keep the money for himself. On January 20, Ryan’s motorbike, belongings and an apparent suicide note were found at the edge of a cliff in Uluwatu in Bali. Ryan’s remains have never been found and many people believe that he may have staged his own death.
