Netflix’s true crime docuseries Files of the Unexplained episode 3, “The Yuba County Five,” focuses on Ted Weiher, Gary Mathias, Bill Sterling, Jack “Doc” Madruga, and Jackie Huett, a group of friends who went missing in 1978. The episode is gripping, sad, and at times infuriating. Because each episode of the eight real-life cases covered runs in an hour’s slot, some stories had to be edited out. Drew Hurst Beeson’s Out of Bounds: What happened to the Yuba County 5 is an excellent resource for those missing details.
The five men were last seen cheering on their favorite team, Chico State, against Uc Davis at California State University. They arrived at the basketball game for celebration, and in defiance, of their own basketball tournament scheduled the very next day. Their team, the Gateway Gators, were about to close out a season-long winning streak with a competition hosted by the Special Olympics in Sacramento on Feb.
