This week, we're veering away slightly from our regular cases and talking about a huge story in the true crime world: the disappearance of Kristin Smart. Kristin was a 19-year-old freshman at Cal Poly in 1996 when she went missing after a party over Memorial Day weekend. Though a suspect was quickly identified, early investigative mistakes and a lack of physical evidence has left this case unsolved for nearly 25 years. In part one, we're summarizing Kristin's disappearance and the investigation. Next week, we'll get you up to date with all of the breaking news in this case and the Smart family's quest for justice for their oldest child.For a full list of sources, along with photos and videos, please visit our blog at AndThenTheyWereGone.com.Sources: KRISTIN SMART STORY – The California Register Disappearance of Kristin Smart PHOTOS: The Kristin Smart disappearance A Timeline of the Kristin Smart Case Kristin Smart Was Killed During Attempted Rape, Prosecutor Says Kristin Smart Timeline: From California college student's 1996 disappearance to 2021 arrests Paul Flores, father appear in court for hearing in Kristin Smart case About Kristin — Remembering Kristin Smart Kristin Denise Smart – The Charley Project What to Know About Kristin Smart's Presumed Murder After Arrest of Classmate Paul Flores Paul Flores investigated in LA County sexual assault cases Paul Flores: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know Paul Flores, the San Pedro man charged in Kristin Smart’s death, investigated in L.A. sex assault cases Paul Flores Now: Where is He Today?
