Summary

This week, in Dunbar, West Virginia, a 12 year old boy disappears, but ends up being found in the worst possible way. The police initially think they have the people responsible, only to find out they didn't. A list of 88 suspects yields no results, until 4 young boys are kidnapped while hitchhiking, and the whole thing takes a bizarre turn. In the end, the most primitive form of justice prevails, and we're not even sure we feel bad about it!

Along the way, we find out that redheads need a festival, too, that hitchhiking in the hills of West Virginia is never a good idea, and that sometimes bad people police themselves... brutally!
