In December of 1997, a 23-year-old woman went out to a bowling alley with friends to celebrate finals week and a recent promotion. But after a fun, seemingly uneventful evening, she disappeared without a trace along with her car. She was missing for a whole month before her body was found during the search for someone else. This is the murder of Laney Gwinner.
