In a surprising turn of events, the stories of mysterious disappearances have taken a new twist with the discovery of “Adventures with Purpose” (AWP) by concerned family and friends. Jared Leisek, a salvage diver based in Oregon, stumbled upon his mission in late 2019 while documenting his findings of items like iPhones in lakes and rivers.
