In this special throwback episode, we revisit the haunting unsolved case of Amy Mihaljevic, the 10-year-old girl who was abducted from a Bay Village, Ohio shopping plaza in 1989 and later found murdered in a rural Ashland County field. We’ll take you through the chilling timeline, exploring the ongoing investigation, new DNA testing, and the relentless pursuit of answers that still grips investigators and true crime enthusiasts alike. With fresh updates and expert insights, we ask, will Amy’s killer finally be brought to justice? Despite the passage of 35 years, hope remains alive, and the truth is still waiting to be uncovered.

We’d love to hear your perspective on Anthony’s story. Do you think Anthony Godby Johnson was a real teenage boy who was unfairly discredited? Or do you believe that Vicki Johnson, or maybe even someone else entirely, made the whole thing up? If so, what do you think might’ve motivated the person behind the mask to concoct such an elaborate story? Leave a comment to join in this interesting discussion.
