Brianna and Caitlin Denison // 287

In January of 2008, a 19-year-old woman went missing from Reno, Nevada. When her body was discovered weeks later in a field, evidence brought police to her killer. But 10 years later, in January of 2018, her 19-year-old cousin boarded a plane to Texas from Nevada, and was never seen by her family again. When home security camera footage captured a woman who resembled her, the mystery deepened. This the murder of Brianna Denison, and the disappearance of Caitlin Denison.
