True crime

On August 3, 2013, just weeks before beginning her senior year of high school, 17 year old Alexis Murphy left her family home after telling her mother that she was going to spend the day shopping in Lynchburg, VA. Unfortunately Alexis never returned home that night so her mother reported her missing to the Nelson County Sheriff’s Department. Within a week investigators would find a suspect, but it would take years for the family of Alexis Murphy to receive justice.
