A girl went out to buy candy on December 7, 2023, in Cali and disappeared within five blocks. The only two cameras that could see her had their wires deliberately cut. Who set that trap before she left?

In this episode, you will discover how a watchman with multiple convictions for sexual abuse of minors was free on bail when he executed one of the most planned crimes against a teenager in Colombia. We will follow the forensic evidence that revealed where Michelle was found, the escape to Villavicencio, and the operation that captured the predator 96 hours later. But we will also unveil the contradictions that question how the judicial system kept him free.
