Summary

On the 2nd of August 1980, 18-year-old Lakota teenager Candace Rough Surface went to the Silver Dollar Bar with her sister, Clara and her sister’s boyfriend. Candi felt like a fifth wheel, so told them that she wanted to go somewhere else. Clara tried to convince her to stay and hang out with them, but being the tag-along wasn’t quite Candi’s idea of fun. She left into the night and her loved ones would never see her alive again.
