This week we are discussing the mysterious disappearance of Nikki Cheng Saelee-McCain. Born in Taiwan and raised in Seattle, Nikki's life took a serious turn when her tumultuous relationship with her husband, Tyler, escalated to severe abuse during the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite her forgiving nature and hopes for a better future, Nikki went missing in May 2024, with her abandoned truck later found in a remote area. As Nikki's family continues their search for answers, Tyler's inconsistent claims and legal troubles raise suspicions about his involvement in her disappearance. Check-out the family's linktree with more information on Nikki and the family's search for her: https://linktr.ee/findnikki Research by Haley Gray with assistance from Whitney St. Andre.
