Foul play has never been ruled out entirely in the case of Dutch Panama hikers, Kris and Lisanne. Disconcerting evidence surrounds their story, raising questions as to whether there is a possible suspect, or suspects, in the girls’ disappearance and eventual deaths. Generally, an incident like this can be explained away by the natural environmental elements and lack of wilderness survival skills, but there is much more to this than simply “lost and found.”

Lisanne Froon, 22, and Kris Kremers, 21, were spending their time together after graduating from a Dutch university. They saved up enough money to visit the country of Panama, where they planned on sightseeing, learning Spanish, and volunteering with local children.

They had made arrangements to stay with a family in the village of Boquete while they attended their Spanish program. However, that plan never came to fruition and instead of the life-changing adventure that the girls had dreamed of, their fates ended up shrouded in mystery and tragedy.
