On July 18th, 2018 a University of Iowa student would disappear, seemingly without a trace while she was home for the summer in her hometown of Brooklyn, Iowa. For a month, police and everyone else were at a complete and utter loss as to what had happened to this young lady and there seemed to be no leads, no evidence and no trace of where, how and who else was involved in the disappearance. She sent a message to her boyfriend, went for a job and never returned home. This case is one that was solved because of technology, in the form of CCTV cameras. Today we will talk about what happened, who was behind it and the fallout when the truth was uncovered.
