This week, Drewby and Yergy discuss the tragic case of Erica Green, or as she was more famously known, Precious Doe. Erica's mother, Michelle Johnson, and her new man, Harrell, murdered the little girl, decapitated her, and then disposed of her body in the woods. She was discovered by chance by authorities searching for a missing elderly man. Erica's identity was unknown for years, until the most unlikely source came forward... Harrell's own grandfather.
