Basement Note Found: How a Folded Paper Saved Paula Sheridan

Summary
A folded paper tucked under a metal survey pin led to a basement, a name, and the four-word line "basement, still here" - a precise clue placed where nobody should have been looking. That single note triggered a search that uncovered a week-long survival and a trail pointing to a man who had followed her; how did a ballpoint pen in a cardigan and a mapped property become the difference between life and death?
In this episode, we tell what was discovered, what investigators pieced together from footage gaps and witness statements, and how a county surveyor's find reopened a missing person case and answered the question: who put the note where it needed to be, and why?
