Andrew Sadek was a 20-year-old college student at North Dakota State College of Science when he disappeared from his dorm in Wahpeton, North Dakota. Weeks later, his body was found in the Red River. His death was ruled a suicide, but the circumstances surrounding it have continued to raise questions.

In this episode of Crime Salad, we examine Andrew’s case and the broader risks tied to confidential informant agreements, including the pressures placed on young or first-time offenders and the lack of consistent oversight and safety.

For Andrew’s parents, the fight has been endless. Was enough done to protect him? Who should be held accountable?
