More than a year after Asha Degree vanished from Shelby, North Carolina, one of the most important pieces of evidence was found far from her home: her backpack, buried along North Carolina Highway 18 in Burke County.
In this episode of Unsolved and Missing, we follow the discovery of the backpack, why its location mattered, and how a buried school bag changed the direction of the case without answering the central question.
A child’s bag was found. But Asha was not.
