Hell and Gone Murder Line: Jay Slater  
Podcast: Hell and Gone
Published On: Thu Jul 04 2024
Description: On Sunday June 17, 2024, Jay Slater, a 19 year old bricklayer’s apprentice who lived in Lancashire, England was on his first ever foreign holiday - and he seemed to be having a blast.   He had gone to the island of Tenerife in Spain with a female friend named Lucy and a guy named Brad. That night he and Lucy went out to a music festival called New Rave Generation. It was held at Papagayo Beach Club, along a strip called Veronica’s Strip that has a ton of nightclubs and neon signs. It was there he met two British men and somehow they made a plan to go on to their airbnb.  The next morning Lucy got one last frantic call from Jay just after 8 am - saying he was lost, didn’t know where he was, and was panicked. He never showed up again.  So was Jay kidnapped and murdered, did he wander off into the wilderness or did something else happen to him?  This case is wild- it has exposed the seedy underside of this island and the criminal underworld that are operating there -including drug lords and mobsters dubbed the timeshare killers - and everyone from police detectives to psychics and TikTok stars have descended on this tiny island in the Canaries to find a young man who was partying and vanished without a trace right in the middle of an island full of tourists.
