About this episode
This episode covers the tragic murder of 17-year-old Maggie Long and the investigation surrounding her death.
On Friday, December 1st, 2017, seventeen year old Maggie Long finished up her day at school and drove home to pick up refreshments for a concert that night. She never returned. Hours later, firefighters and sheriff's deputies responded to a call about intruders and a fire at her family home. There, in the scorched husk of the home, they found Maggie's body. Maggie was a beacon in her community, a brilliant and kind young woman who dedicated her life to helping others and doing everything she could to make the world a better place. Investigators theorized she stumbled upon a robbery in progress and was killed as a result of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Evidence showed the intruders, numbering between 3 and 4, stole a large safe from the house which contained firearms, ammunition and jade figures. Neither the stolen items nor the safe has ever been found. Composite images of suspects have been released, but whether or not they are reliable has been debated by current law enforcement.
