The

Crime Stories with Nancy Grace

A gorgeous young girl, mini-Soryano, disappears later found dead.

13 years old, a beautiful little girl straight A's loved astronomy looking at the stars.

In the last hours, a bombshell and a case at his lane dormant over 20 years.

I'm Nancy Grace.

Thank you for being with us here at Fox Nation and Series XM 111.

Take a listen to our friends at crimeonline.com, our cut one.

Minner Lee, Soryano was known to friends and family as mini.

At 13, mini was in seventh grade and was a straight A student who wrote poetry in her journal

about love and rainbows.

She liked to read romance novels and she dreamed of one day becoming an astronaut.

She was a fixture in her neighborhood riding her bike or zooming by on roller skates.

Her friends describe her as being mature for her age.

Annie's aunt, Marita Soryano said people used to call mini the Cinderella of the building.

Many usually stay close to home.

She sold candy door to door and was often seen sitting in the lobby of her apartment building

doing her homework.

She helped out with family chores, household responsibilities like doing her family's laundry

or walking free blocks to a 24 hour deli.

Sometimes late at night to buy groceries.
