Sandy Rea: Oklahoma's Most Corrupt Cold Case

Join us for season 2 with new host Jeana! In this first part of our two-part series, we're exploring the heartbreaking and still-unsolved case of Amber Hagerman, the 9-year-old whose 1996 abduction in Arlington, Texas, changed the way missing child cases are handled across the United States. We'll walk through the events of that tragic day, the investigation that followed, the autopsy and the questions that remain unanswered nearly three decades later. We will also give two separate profiles we each wrote, and you can see which profile makes sense to you! While Amber's killer has never been identified, her legacy lives on through the AMBER Alert system, which has helped recover countless missing children. This episode is dedicated to JoJo, Jones or Joni, my late mother and partner in crime.
