A Family Torn: A day that began with a class field trip ended with a parent’s worst nightmare. An 11-year-old girl was missing. Her parents were certain she was no runaway. When they failed to find her in their quiet Illinois neighborhood, they called the police. The FBI soon joined the investigation and family and friends worked with detectives and agents in an urgent search for the missing girl. Faced with conflicting witness reports and false leads, agents wouldn’t stop until they found the girl, and the truth.
Vanished: In the summer of 1988, a wealthy Jackson, Mississippi woman disappeared from her home in broad daylight. Left behind was a mysterious ransom note listing twelve names and no specific instructions. The note, and a few drops of blood were the only clues to her fate. FBI and local police struggled to find answers in the cryptic message so they could find the kidnapper and retrieve the victim before her time ran out. Solving the crime required the keen insight of a criminal profiler and the perseverance of a family, local authorities, and the FBI.
Deadly Heist: In Arizona, a shipment of money vanished into the high desert, along with the two men hired to guard it. The FBI didn’t know if the guards were participants or victims of an ambush. Answers lay somewhere in the thousands of square miles of Arizona’s northwest territory. When the vehicle was recovered with three hundred thousand dollars and the drivers missing, suspicions that the crime was an inside job grew. FBI agents struggled to piece together scattered clues to reveal the truth about what happened to the missing men and the location of the missing money.
