In 2007, Lance Corporal Maria Lauterbach made a sexual assault allegation against her supervisor, Corporal Cesar Laurean. But NCIS didn’t take her allegation serious. Corporal Laurean was a model Marine after all, and Lance Corporal Lauterbach was a problem child. But when she turned up pregnant and it was possibly Corporal Laurean’s baby, Lance Corporal Lauterbach vanished a month before her baby was due. But what happened? Did she run away from the Marine Corps or did someone make her disappear to silence her? Dig in with Margot as she navigates this particularly difficult story to tell.
