On Sunday, September 27th, 2015, 20-year-old Indiana University sophomore Joseph Smedley vanished. Joseph was bright and ambitious, pursuing a degree in bio-chemistry and pharmacology. He’d recently moved into a shared off campus house with two of his fraternity brothers and sometime after 10:30 p.m. Sunday night, he left his house and was never seen alive again. After his disappearance, a string of strange clues and occurrences left those close to Joseph wondering what really could have happened to him? A Heavy Weight re-investigates Joseph’s disappearance.
