Summary

In October of 1974, a 19-year-old woman headed to her church at midnight after she and her husband got into an argument. But when she didn’t return home that night, her husband reported her missing. When her body was found inside in a ritualistic manner just hours later, police began a painstaking investigation. Decades later, when a DNA match was made, a shocking ending came to her case. This is the story of Arlis Perry.
