Summary
On Friday, October 27, 1989, 10-year-old Amy Mihaljevic rode her bike to Bay Middle School in Bay Village, Ohio. She was excited about yearbook photo retakes, but after classes ended Amy’s mother expected a daily check-in call, and although Amy phoned her saying her choir tryout went well, she never came home.
Investigators learned Amy had actually walked to the nearby Bay Square Shopping Center with friends after school. An unknown caller had convinced her to meet them there to buy a “gift” for her mother — a story that wasn't true. Witnesses saw her speaking with a man in the parking lot before she vanished. Months later, on February 8, 1990, a jogger discovered Amy’s body in a rural cornfield in Ashland County, ending the search but leaving behind a haunting mystery.
