The most incriminating and significant moment of the Up and Vanished podcast is when Catfish John Keenan responds to host Payne Lindsay who had told him about a guy who messaged asking for $5,000 to reveal what happened to Kristal. Catfish unknowingly admits to having knowledge and information about Kristal’s disappearance.

“I’ve seen a really short video of what they did,” the man tells Payne over Facebook messenger. “I’ll tell you the whole story of what happened, the whole story, because I know what happened for sure. I’ve seen a little video and a voice recording of the last night she was at Catfish’s. I know from what Catfish and…Have told me as well.”

If it wasn’t real information Catfish would have said something to Payne like “I don’t know who that is and I have no idea what he’s talking about,” or “that’s crazy.” Instead, he issued a death threat and says gangsters will be calling the guy to explain himself. Catfish also says he knows that the guy “kills people” and there are “bodies” at his place.
