On the morning of August 15, 2002, something terrible was discovered in the quiet community of Oak Level, Virginia. Michael and Mary Short — a husband and wife devoted to their family and respected in their town — were found murdered inside their home. Their nine-year-old daughter, Jennifer, was missing. Law enforcement launched one of the most exhaustive searches and investigations in the region’s history, but what they found over the next six weeks struck the hearts of everyone who followed the case.

That 12-year-old girl, who was said to be bright, musical, talented, and who loved to breakdance, was Sharon Baldeagle from Eagle Butte, South Dakota. This is the story of her disappearance and a discussion of the questions that remain.
