This week, A.C. dives into one of the most haunting missing persons cases in American history, the disappearance of the Sodder children. On Christmas Eve, 1945, a fire broke out in the Sodder family home. Five children were never seen again. No bodies. No remains. Just unanswered questions. Did they perish in the fire, their remains somehow completely destroyed? Or were they kidnapped, their disappearance hidden beneath the smoke? And if someone took them, why was there never a ransom demand? The Sodder family spent decades searching for their lost children—but the truth never came.
