In November of 1986, 28-year-old Mary Kathryn Ennis disappeared from the home she shared with her young son in Hillsborough, N.C. While everyone who knew the single mom insisted she never would have willingly left her son, the search yielded few clues besides her vehicle located a short distance away. Two years later, prison inmates would be the key to solving this mysterious case. We'll also discuss the death of UNC college student William McMichael III, who was killed when he tried to enter the home of a family he didn't know in the middle of the night in January of 1989.

In 1968, a killer terrorized the small town of Gaffney, S.C. before calling the local newspaper editor and anonymously confessing to his crimes. Thanks to concerned citizens who went out looking for a teenager who'd been abducted, police were able to apprehend the killer, who became known as The Gaffney Strangler, before he could hurt anyone else. But he had a secret to confess--he'd killed before and another man was in prison for the crime.
