UNSOLVED: Bethany Markowski vanishes from Tennessee mall in 2001

1. Sounds like Larry was living in his van and still got his daughter for the weekend. Blows my mind. I place a fair amount of blame on the mother for letting her go.

2. I think I may believe him. Clearly he does not care about any of his kids. I can see him sleeping in the car while his young daughter goes inside the mall by herself. He did come to the door to talk. Usually when the people don't wanna talk or run away, they are guilty of something.

3. The wife said Larry was violent, but the reporter said there are no record of it anywhere. Like many commenters here, I actually believe the father and find the mother to be a little suspicious.

4. Take a daughter from her father because you hate him. Teaching your daughter to hate her father is cruel. I guess it didn’t work out the way you planned did it Bethany. You caused this Johnnie.

5. “Larry got Johnny pregnant “, as if Johnny had no choice in the matter. 🤦‍♂️. Believe me, she got pregnant with Larry’s help.

6. Has Larry ever taken a lie detector? There’s part of me that believes him & can see after everybody thinking it’s you no matter what you say you tend to stop trying to make people believe you. On the other hand he’s had a very long time to repeat the same story with conviction as no new evidence or proven facts have called for new answers from him so his original story hasn’t been picked at & he’s had years to learn how to tell it confidently.

7. Nah. She was never at the mall. Her dad did something with her to punish mom for leaving him.

8. I’m sorry guys but this is my honest opinion, I feel like the father had something 2 do with this bc of how bad he was treating both the mom and Bethany.

9. I’m sorry but I don’t think the Dad did it!

10. Larry know where she is
    He lieing

11. Her saying the kid went "Oh wow I'm gonna not have to chew my nails any more because my dad is not around" doesn't sound like somebody her age would say. Her mom is lying

12. he killed her to punish his ex and so he didnt have to pay child support.
    Somehow somewhere someday her remains will be found and this guy is going to get charged

13. That dude didn't get out of a bath tub. Hair isn't even damp. Lied right off the bat!

14. This was a shotty investigation, they know that man killed his daughter. They know he was never at that mall with her.

15. I went to elementary school with Bethany. 3rd grade. The year she went missing. We were the best of friends in class. I look back now and realize a lot of things that were red flags. But her memory is always with me ! Ever since. And it’s been over 23 years 😢

16. Larry did a quick scan for the police as he came out to talk to Jason. I feel like there are a lot of lies or truths stretched on both sides of this story. Sad part is that Bethany is the one that loses in all of it 😢. Hoping some sort of answers come one day ❤

17. Where do people disappear too😢😢this disappearance cases are the worst😢😢

18. I hope the police finds Bethany soon. I do not believe the mother – she just doesn’t look truthful to me (darting eyes).

19. dad seems innocent.i don't think he is holding back anything

20. I'm sorry she seems to be lying!
    There's more to this story!
    Btw he a scumbag!
    Sad for Bethany!

21. Dad did it.

22. He kinda reminds me of a medieval judge. In the stocks they go! Humiliating by community service.

23. None of this sits well with me

24. He's a father but you can't saw emotion on his face

25. "kinda", "gonna"….now most Americans are talking Southern lingo !

26. At first I thought he did it but he was so willing to come out and talk..maybe there is two sides to every story.

27. WHY DOES SHE LOOK LIKE KYLIE JENNER WITHOUT ALL THE SURGERIES??

28. Dad seems like he is telling the truth…

29. Why does side chics think who cheat on their wives w/ them are going to treat them well ?

30. Dont worry, she is fine, ran away from home and married her boyfriend, they are now billionaires…

31. Why would you put yourself in a predicament to marry a man who was married and had children and made them go down the street to her sisters and have you over and rude down the street and kids are waving and you find out they was his kid's you was the other woman and then he had another mistress ashame the kid's had to be involved in his webs of lies.

32. I honestly believe that the mom and Bethany planned this out and the mom followed them in her car. I think the reason Bethany didn't appear on the mall cameras is bc they left before she entered and she used the mall only as an excuse to leave the car and get away from the father and go with the mother. I think the mom hid her and is probably still hiding her bc they feared the father. I don't think the father had anything to do with the disappearance. There's alot of things that the mom says that don't sound right. But hey, I could be wrong 😂

33. This mom is soooo sketchy. From the “Are we leaving daddy?” (Kids dont say that). The description of her abuse sounds basic. The “school” later. Even the daughters’ lasts words seem like what an adult would think a kid would say. Also the fact she has NOT done any interviews in sooooooo many years, and the daughter is a grown up. Also BOTH her MOM and the moms sister look like the WOMAN in the drawing. And my last and biggest is….who remembers their 11 yr kids feet. Like what a weird thing to say. I call shenanigans in this one.

34. Let me tell ya if you are someone who needs answers or someone to fight for you or your family, then this is the guy for you! This little guy has elephant balls.

35. i once saw this story about a mom that dropped her daughter off at a shopping mall to pick up a swimsuit for a pool party and the mom waited in the car but the daughter never came back out. it was suppose to be just a quick 5 minute in and out. does anyone know about this case? i remember it being very perplexing.

36. I'm sorry, but there's a literal police report with MULTIPLE witnesses that attested to him trying to pull Bethany by the arm through the school trying to take her and pushing teachers away. I don't know that he's a murderer, but the fact that he tried to take her once in such a public way tells me he's likely taken her and hidden her elsewhere.

37. ⁰

38. I swear this girls age progression photo looks like a girl named Brittany that I know from here where I live in NC. Which isn’t far from where this happened. Idk her family or if she was adopted or whatever but the age would be about the same because Brittany is a year younger than me. Super weird

39. I find it hard to believe that at 28 she's still hidden somewhere. Sad to say, but she's probably dead, otherwise she would have come forward or someone would have seen her somewhere. If she was still a minor, I would believe her dad is keeping her with a relative or someone somewhere, but she's 28, so that's unlikely.

40. The mystery woman in the sketch honestly looks like Bethany’s mom to me…but that wouldn’t make that much since I guess…

41. I truly don’t know who to believe. The mom gives off weird vibes. Also the dad actually talking to crime watch about it (which never usually happens when they knock on their door) is odd and he seems genuine. Maybe he’s just a great liar though. Idk this one really puzzles me.

42. I don't think she is alive. At 28 years she would have tried to reach out.

43. He seemed incredibly deceptive and is a pathological manipulator. He killed that baby girl when she first went missing. And he has told the lie so much he can say it and believe his own bullshit

44. Look at Harold

45. Last Era of the nobody seen the person, no video cameras etc.

46. Ok what if the mom an dad are in it together! 🧐🤔🫣. She was with the dad an he was going to get to the mall at a certain time an told the mother. The dad lets the little girl go in the mall alone but watches out the window. The mother pulls up and tells her daughter the little girl to get in the car with her, an the little girl does. Then the dad takes a nap 😴 to give the mother time to get away or he goes with them and they both kill the little girl then he goes back to the van, takes a nap 😴 then gets up dressed goes in the mall and acts like he’s looking for his little girl and after awhile he calls the 👮🏻‍♂️ 👮🏻👮🏻‍♀️👮🏼🚨🚓! 👀🤔🧐

47. Idk this case looks off. I don’t believe neither side. One of them know what happened to their daughter. One of them doesn’t want to speak up. The father took her to the mall. But there’s no footage of her being in the mall. Then as a parent why would you leave your 11 year old to go to the mall by their self. Also, why do you have a friend of yours going to podcast talking about her own father was going to drive her to Mexico in a van. Then, the sketch looks like her mother. It’s too many details to even know or think that any of these sides can care about their own daughter.
