About this episode

The episode explores the tragic case of Erica Parsons, who was reported missing two years after her disappearance, revealing a web of deception and abuse by her adoptive parents.

When 13-year-old Erica Parsons was finally reported missing in 2013, investigators made a chilling discovery: the young girl had already been gone for two full years. What began as a standard missing person search quickly unraveled into a horrific house of cards built by her adoptive parents, Casey and Sandy Parsons. From a completely fabricated biological grandmother to a modern-day house of horrors filled with systematic abuse, this episode deconstructs the definitive investigation, the definitive federal fraud case, and the chilling midnight confession that finally led authorities to a shallow grave in South Carolina Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/criminal--6152643/support .
