MORGANTOWN — West Virginia-based production company Veritas Underground Media launched the first episode of the true crime podcast “Buried, Not Forgotten,” Wednesday, about the mysterious deaths of Walter Smith and Peter Hauer.
In 1975, Smith never returned from a bike ride from his summer job at Watoga State Park in Pocahontas County. After a large-scale search was initiated that week, Walter Smith’s body was found in a cave under a pile of rocks on private property.
The property owner, Peter Hauer, was interviewed by investigators and within the week, he also went missing. The police report reads that Peter killed Walter and then took his own life, but the police reports don’t quite add up.
“Buried, Not Forgotten” explores the evidence that something much more complex, and sinister, happened back in the summer of 1975. Episodes will air weekly and are available wherever you get your podcasts.
