Summary

Nikki Kuhnhausen was born “Nicholas.” From a very young age her mother Lisa knew her son wasn’t like the other boys at school. In 6th grade Nikki had the courage to come out, identifying as female. She embraced the person she truly felt she was, unapologetically. But when Nikki suddenly went missing from the Vancouver, WA area one day…it would be some time before anyone learned what had actually happened to the at-risk 17 year old… Written by Michael Dunphy Jr., Executive Produced by Michael Ojibway.
