On Saturday, Jan. 13, 2018, Dean Wright was worried. His 55-year-old brother, Raymond Wright, a family man and master carpenter, had vanished. Dean Wright spoke to his brother daily, but now Ray Wright had not answered any texts or calls in two days.
“I called, and I called, and I called, straight to voicemail every time,” Ray Wright’s daughter, Haley Kendall, says. Her sister Kennedy Wright told “48 Hours, “It was really scary.”
Contributor Natalie Morales spoke with Wright’s family about his disappearance for “Who Took Our Dad? The Abduction of Ray Wright,” an all-new “48 Hours” airing Saturday, Feb. 3 at 10/9c on CBS and streaming on Paramount+.
Dean Wright had repeatedly checked his brother’s workshop and home in the Sacramento suburbs. Nothing seemed out of place, other than the fact that Ray Wright’s truck was missing.
