On Valentine’s Day in 2000, 9-year-old Asha Degree vanished from her Shelby, North Carolina home in the early morning hours. Her packed bookbag was found miles away, but Asha was never seen again. Was this a case of a runaway — or something far more sinister?

In this episode, we examine one of the most heartbreaking and enduring unsolved missing child cases in America. We’ll walk through the timeline, suspicious sightings, key evidence, and chilling theories that continue to confound investigators more than two decades later.

  • If you have any information about the disappearance of Asha Degree, please contact the FBI at 1-800-CALL-FBI or the Cleveland County Sheriff's Office at (704) 484-4788. You can also submit tips online at tips.fbi.gov. Even the smallest detail could help bring Asha home.
