Amber's Story

As you're on your way home, your phone suddenly buzzes. You look around and see that everyone else is also looking down at their screens. You realize that the news is everywhere: on social media, TV, and even on traffic boards. You quickly skim through the description, just in case, while continuing to walk. When you look up from your phone, you notice a weirdly familiar car and immediately call 911. Thanks to the alert on your phone, a kidnapped child is rescued. This story is not uncommon, and it all started in Texas in 1996 with the unsolved murder of 9-year-old Amber Hagerman.
