About this listen

 In this episode of Pretty Lies & Alibis, we start a deep dive into the mysterious death of 18-year-old UC Boulder student Megan Trussell, whose body was found near the 40-mile marker of Boulder Canyon Drive in Colorado after she vanished from the University of Colorado Boulder campus
Authorities ruled her death the result of amphetamine toxicity combined with exposure to cold, classifying it as self-harm — but Megan’s family strongly disputes that conclusion.

We walk through who Megan was, the close-knit family she came from, and the timeline leading up to her disappearance on February 9, 2025.

The episode covers troubling roommate dynamics, unanswered texts, empty prescription bottles, and campus police delays before federal agencies became involved. It also explains how law enforcement used Stingray technology to track Megan’s phone as it appeared to move miles away from campus into a dark, icy canyon late at night.

Part One ends with the discovery of Megan’s body near a drainage culvert, unusual clothing damage, a missing shoe, and physical evidence that has left her family — and investigators — with more questions than answers.
