More than five weeks later, she was found deceased, but major questions still remain about what happened between the day she disappeared and the day she was found.In this episode of Troubling Truths, we walk through Nicki’s timeline and sit down with K9 handler Chad Goode, who was directly involved in the search for Nicki. Chad explains what his dog alerted to, how K9 searches work, what those alerts can mean, and what trained search dogs can and cannot tell investigators.We also discuss Nicki’s final known movements, the search efforts, the possibility that she may have been waiting for someone, and the unanswered questions that still surround her disappearance and death.We also want to highlight It’s Nikki and Rumba Foundation, an organization created to help people who want to support families through K9 search efforts. Through donations, the foundation helps provide training for handlers and their dogs, with the long-term goal of also helping place trained dogs with people who want to assist families during searches. Donations help make that training and future K9 support possible.Learn more about Chad, the K9 work, and the foundation here:<a href="https://dot.cards/fullarmork9sllc" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://dot.cards/fullarmork9sllc</a>This episode is about separating verified facts from speculation, hearing firsthand from someone who participated in the search, and continuing to ask the questions surrounding what happened to Nicki Holbrook Evans.<br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/troubling-truths-podcast--7257062/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/troubling-truths-podcast--7257062/support</a>.]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/74726932</guid><pubDate>Fri, 28 Aug 2026 00:20:18 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/74726932/nicki_pod_mixdown.mp3" length="158895849" type="audio/mpeg"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/0c52a544-b548-479b-bb61-9bc59cd4eac3/0c52a544-b548-479b-bb61-9bc59cd4eac3.srt" type="application/x-subrip" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/0c52a544-b548-479b-bb61-9bc59cd4eac3/0c52a544-b548-479b-bb61-9bc59cd4eac3.txt" type="text/plain" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/0c52a544-b548-479b-bb61-9bc59cd4eac3/0c52a544-b548-479b-bb61-9bc59cd4eac3.vtt" type="text/vtt" language="en"/><itunes:author>Sheri Freeman</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>Tamara “Nicki” Holbrook Evans disappeared from the Campobello area of Spartanburg County on June 26, 2026.

In this episode, we discuss what happened to Mark, the investigation, the years of unanswered questions, and what it took to keep pushing when giving up would have been easier.We also talk about the emotional side of fighting for justice, what families endure behind the scenes, and why Mark’s story still matters today.This is a story of loss, persistence, truth, and a mother who refused to stop fighting for her son.Listen to Episode 2 of Troubling Truths: The Murder of Mark Hays: The Story Behind A Mother’s Promise.<br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/troubling-truths-podcast--7257062/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/troubling-truths-podcast--7257062/support</a>.]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>4618</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>amotherspromise,amotherspromisethemarkhaysstor,coldcase,crimepodcast,crimestory,justiceformarkhays,justiceforvictims,markhays,markhaysmurder,murdercase,murderinvestigation,podcastepisode2,realcrime,troublingtruths,troublingtruthspodcast,truecrime,truecrimecommunity,truecrimepodcast,unsolvedcrime,victimsfamilies</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/ca33a4c6245cb9220278cc17262b6bc1.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>Todd Kohlhepp: Inside the Serial Killer Case | Troubling Truths Podcast</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/todd-kohlhepp-inside-the-serial-killer-case-troubling-truths-podcast--73830632</link><description><![CDATA[In the debut episode of Troubling Truths, Benna, Sheri, and Pauline introduce themselves, share what brought them together, and explain why they created a podcast built around asking the questions other people are sometimes afraid to ask.
