You know her name. -- 

You’re on your way home and suddenly, your phone buzzes. Everyone around you looks down at their screen, and you know it is now everywhere: on your social media feed, on TV, even on traffic boards. You don’t pay much attention to all of it but still skim through the description while walking, just in case. When you finally look up from your screen, a weirdly familiar car catches your eye and you call 911. A kidnapped child has been saved thanks to the alert on your phone. This story is not uncommon, and it all started in Texas, in 1996 with the unsolved murder of 9 year old Amber Hagerman.

Footage From: True Crime Daily, After Amber (WFAA), News Nation, Inside Edition, WFAA-TV, CBSDFW, WFMY News 2, WPLG Local 10, Daily Blast Live.
