17-year-old Carla Walker was blonde and popular and was looking forward to going to college and maybe starting a life with her boyfriend Rodney Mccoy, the Western Hills Cougars star quarterback.
But the night of February 16th, 1974, would be the beginning of an unimaginable nightmare for not only Rodney, but also for Carla's family when Carla was abducted out of a bowling alley parking lot, all while her boyfriend Rodney sat helpless.
Carla's body would be discovered three days later, but this case would take another 46 years before anyone had an answer to the question: Who killed Carla Walker?
