Summary

Nine-year-old Daralyn Johnson disappeared in 1982 as she walked to school in Nampa, Idaho. Her body was found days later next to the Snake River. A 34-year-old man was soon arrested and convicted of the murder, but he would later be found to be innocent. Now, nearly 40 years after the 9-year-old was found dead, investigators say they have found her real killer.
