In 1955, a trade ship was scheduled to deliver cargo from the island of Samoa to the neighboring island of Tokelau. It never reached its destination. The half-sunken remains of the ship were discovered a month later with 4 tons of missing cargo and bloody bandages on deck, but no signs of life. The passengers were never found. Today, we discuss the mysterious disappearance of the MV Joyita.
