In this episode of Crime Bit with Danelle Hallan, we examine the early years of Oakley Carlson, from her parents losing custody amid instability to her thriving in foster care with Eric and Jaime Jo Hiles. As reunification plans move forward, warning signs pile up and the concerns raised by those closest to Oakley are repeatedly brushed aside. By late 2021, a house fire, missing answers, and a welfare check spark a chilling question: where is Oakley?

Stay tuned for Part 2 as the investigation closes in.
