This week, Drewby and Yergy head to Kettering, Ohio, to discuss the case of Erica Baker, a 9-year-old girl who had her whole life ahead of her. On February 7th 1999, Erica set off to Indian Riffle Park with her Shih Tzu, Jamie, after not being able to go to a father daughter dance that was occurring in the park's community center that evening. Hours passed, and day turned to night. Sadly, Erica never made it home that evening. What should have been just a simple outing to the park turned into one of Ohio's biggest unsolved missing persons cases in history.
