Summary

On the afternoon of December 12, 1985, K-mart employees reported a lost 2-year-old girl walking around alone. Crystal Louise Robertson's identity remained a mystery, and when asked about her parents, all she would say was, "mommy is in the trees." The missing mother, Diana Robertson, was discovered 2 months later, partially decomposed. She had been raped and a tube sock was tied around her neck.
