The case began on the morning of Aug. 12, when authorities learned Borgwardt, 45, hadn't returned home and was last known to be on Green Lake, according to the Green Lake County Sheriff's Office. Responders believed the missing dad drowned and they scoured the lake using divers, drones, sonar and cadaver K-9s, officials said.
The case took a turn in October when investigators discovered Borgwardt's name had been checked by law enforcement in Canada on Aug. 13, the sheriff said. "I was totally shocked," Podoll told ABC News on Monday. "It was just unbelievable that we would have a case like this where some party actually staged his death.""As far as we know, he's someplace in Eastern Europe," the sheriff told ABC News.
