We examine the horrific true story at the heart of the documentary Into the Fire: The Lost Daughter. The series reveals the tragedy of Aundria Bowman, who disappeared after enduring years of alleged abuse by her adoptive father, Dennis Bowman, which was largely ignored by authorities. We discuss the shocking details of Dennis Bowman's history, how his arrest in an unrelated cold case ultimately led to his confession in Aundria's murder 30 years later, and the profound questions the case raises about the justice system's failure to protect vulnerable children.
