Big updates have emerged in the case of Asha Degree! In February 2000, 9-year-old Asha vanished from her home in the middle of a stormy night. Despite a few reported sightings of her from that night, she was never seen or heard from again. For nearly 25 years, the mystery surrounding her disappearance remained unsolved.

This week, we explore the significant breakthroughs in the case, including the discovery of new DNA evidence, search warrants conducted by the FBI, and potentially damning text messages linked to potential suspects. After over two decades, we may finally be closer to uncovering the truth and achieving justice for Asha and her family.

We first covered this case in Season 1, Episode 13. You can listen to our original coverage here.
