On January 2nd, 1999, 11‑year‑old Mikelle Biggs walked outside with her little sister to wait for the ice cream truck. Minutes later, she was gone. Her purple bike lay on its side. The front wheel was still spinning. Two quarters were on the pavement. And no one saw what happened.

This episode examines one of Arizona’s most haunting cold cases — a disappearance that unfolded in under two minutes, before AMBER Alerts existed in the state, and before modern child‑abduction protocols were in place.

We explore the timeline, the investigation, the long‑standing person of interest, the myths that have grown around the case, and the family who has spent 25 years searching for answers.
