The Springfield Three

Hey! We would love to hear your thoughts, send us a voice note. June 6th, 1992. Two friends come home from graduation parties to spend the night at a mother's house in Springfield, Missouri — the safe option, the responsible choice. By morning, all three women are gone. Cars still in the driveway. Purses, keys, shoes all left behind. The only thing broken in the entire house is the porch light. Over thirty years later, there's still no body, no arrest, and one prime suspect who told a reporter from prison that he knew where they were buried — then called the question "frivolous" when asked directly if he did it. Eli says over five thousand tips and decades of searches have never produced a single piece of physical evidence. Simone says a two-dollar broken porch light might be the most important clue in the whole case. Want to see for yourself?
