This episode is rated a 5 (on my Serious Crime Scale). In the summer of 1980, 18-year-old Gina Hall had just wrapped up her midterm exams at Radford University in Virginia. She was ready to unwind and celebrate, and she knew exactly how – by hitting the dance floor. That night, on June 28, she borrowed her sister’s Monte Carlo and made the short drive to a popular nightclub at the Marriott Inn in Blacksburg. But what began as a night of fun quickly spiraled into something much darker. A chance encounter with a man nearly a decade older than her would lead to her mysterious disappearance – a disappearance that would change Virginia's criminal history forever. No one ever saw Gina again, but what happened next made her case the first in the state to secure a murder conviction without a body. Listen now to hear the full story.
