Enrique Garibay Ruiz: Los Angeles, CA

In the fall of 2017, Enrique Garibay Ruiz—a physicist, mathematician, and writer—left Budapest for what he promised would be a short trip to the United States. He visited New York, then flew west to Los Angeles, checking into a hostel and renting a gray Toyota RAV4. He told his family he’d be home soon.
But Enrique never came home.
On October 3rd, he checked out of the hostel.
 On October 4th, he rented the car.
 On October 5th, he told his wife he was at the airport, waiting for a flight back to Hungary.
Just hours later, in the early morning of October 6th, his credit card was swiped at a Carl’s Jr. near LAX. After that—nothing. The car was never returned. Enrique was never seen again.
In one of the busiest cities in the world, he simply vanished.
Listen as we dive into the Los Angeles, the case of Enrique Garibay Ruiz, and how to stay alive on vacation.
