What Happened to Morgan Nick?

On June 9th, 1995, a little girl attending a Little League game in Alma, AR hugged and kissed her mother before climbing down from the bleachers to catch fireflies with friends. She was last seen kicking sand out of her shoes before she disappeared. That girl’s name is Morgan Nick and the story of her abduction has rattled the region, the state and the nation for more than three decades. But despite intense investigation and a national focus, Morgan has never been found. In recent years, DNA evidence has pointed to a suspect in her case, but to this date, there have been no definitive answers in her case. ⚠️ Content Warning: This episode contains discussions of child abductions, sexual assault, and violence against children.
