"HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT!"

How does a killer on parole just disappear? And how do investigators go about tracking him down years later? PI's Declassified presents an unusual case of locating a man 38 years after he vanished, fleeing his parole officer and leaving no traces. The entire case had nearly been forgotten. But one day when Dr. Clem Pellett of Bellevue, Washington was cleaning out his mother's home, he found newspaper clippings and learned about the murder of his grandfather, Clarence Pellett. Clarence was shot to death by a hitchhiker named Frank Dryman in 1951. Dryman was convicted and served time, but when he was released to parole, he vanished. More than thirty years had passed, but Dr. Pellett decided to try to find his grandfather's killer. Tune in to hear the three resourceful private investigators who worked in concert to locate Frank Dryman and return him to the authorities. It's an incredible story of hiding in plain sight.

After graduating from dental school, he served his residency at the Mayo Clinic, is now considered one of Seattle's top ten surgeons, and has even taught in Zimbabwe.

Dr. Pellet's grandfather, Clarence Pellett, was shot to death by a hitchhiker in 1951, two years before Dr. Pellet was born. While cleaning out his mother's home, Dr. Pellett discovered the details of his grandfather's death while looking through a box of keepsakes containing newspaper clippings of his grandfather's murder. His curiosity led him to research the case and as he gathered more and more information, he called upon the assistance of private investigators.
