May 20, 2026 S2 Ep9: Kim Larrow: The Night She Vanished
The premiere episode of Michigan's Missing Angels dives into the tragic, unresolved 1981 disappearance of 15-year-old Kim Marie Larrow from Canton Township, Michigan. Rather than focusing solely on true-crime theories, the episode aims to look past the decades-old labels to restore Kim's human dignity and piece together what is actually known about the night she vanished. The episode closes with a reminder that Kim was a real person whose life was cut short, leaving behind a grieving family and an empty void. She is not an isolated statistic; her case is tied to a haunting list of names in the region, including Kimberly King, Kellie Brownlee, Nadine O’Dell, Cynthia Coon, and Donna Sera. The next episode will look closely at the patterns and theories connecting these missing girls.
