About this episode
In August of 2013, a 17-year-old girl in Virginia headed out to collect hair supplies for her upcoming senior picture day. But when she didn’t return home that night, her family feared for the worst. After tracking her cell phone to a nearby location and finding surveillance footage of her speaking to a strange man at a nearby gas station, police began looking into a man who was connected to another local girl’s disappearance. This is the story of Alexis Murphy.
