Seventy-nine days after Holly's abduction, a group of hunters discovered her remains. Located in Brimfield, Massachusetts, about nine miles from her kidnapping in Sturbridge, the site and how she was found reveal profiling clues on who was responsible.
But, my investigation also reveals new evidence. The day before the discovery,4 ½ miles from the crime scene, a 12-year-old boy was targeted by a man who might have been the same person who abducted Holly. Almost three decades later, we finally hear his story.
