Summary
In February 1999, sweet 9-year-old Erica Baker vanished from her neighborhood in Kettering, Ohio. Kettering was once considered a safe place to raise children; now, a madman was on the loose. The investigation that would follow would shake residents to their core. This story is filled with twists, turns, lies, and deceit. Who is telling the truth? And who is lying?
Anyone with information is asked to contact Detective Mason of the Kettering Police Department at 937-296-2555 quoting case number 990266.
