San Pedro Bay

Terry, not that it matters, but where are we going?

Down to San Pedro Bay.

To search for Lyle Denby?

Yeah, to put out some feelers, show the picture around.

Dry van is holding at $2.25 per mile, up about 5.5% week over week.

That's a sharp jump, mostly driven by the San Pedro Bay complex, LA, and Long Beach, which just hit a record million TEUs in September.

Whoa, a million boxes?

Right? And that's pushing the spot market.

The spirit answers they were murdered.

They were held underwater in San Pedro Bay in 1930.

Under water, would your face be swollen?

Yes, that's the way that works when you drown and you've been in water for a long period of time.

Jackie, who was keeping a handwritten transcript of the entire seance and the questions they asked the ghost...

She claimed the ghost told them that he had been drowned in the San Pedro Bay in 1930 and that his murderer lived in her old house in San Pedro.

He also told her that there were more ghosts hanging around.

And if that weren't enough, the ghost claimed that it had tried to hang a member of Barry's crew because he looked like his murderer.

I'd like to do that.

All righty.

Barry Taft, the paranormal investigator who worked on the case for a few years, believes that the ghost in the attic was the spirit of a man named Herman Hendrickson, who is only a 28-year-old who drowned in San Pedro Bay in 1930.

But again, I couldn't find out why he thought that's who it was.

...

Okay

...

Here's the next thread of the mystery for Jesse to read.

Revisiting the Jackie Hernandez haunting, which he covered in Corner Fest 26, Alex is looking into this again in the context of the information from the book and trying to verify the details connecting it directly to Maria Rudicinda Florencia Sepulveda de Dodson's story via primary source records that are presumably stored somewhere in the San Pedro Bay Historical Society archives.

OK, yeah.

So so basically, I got to connect.

Though that wasn't its name at the time, obviously.

But this incredible culture lived here with no European contact of any kind until 1542.

When the Spanish explorer Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo arrived and did what all Europeans did at the time and brought more Europeans, eventually leading to Sebastian Vizcaino surveying it and claiming San Pedro Bay for Spain.

And eventually, like 100 years later in the late 18th century, they started settling there as part of a plan to make California like a thing.

Like what?

Well, the San Pedro Bay ports in California are aggressively pushing a $39 million zero-emission truck voucher program.

Oh, nice.

Coupled with a $40 million truck charging network.
