A winner of two regional Edward R. Murrow Awards.
On February 7, 1999, Erica Baker put on her raincoat, leashed up her dog, and started to walk through a park in Kettering, Ohio. The 9-year-old was never seen again. What really happened on that rainy winter afternoon in the park? Neighbors, family members, and investigators search for answers, but 23 years later, the investigation still haunts the community. Erica Baker’s story hits home for Nathan Edwards and Bryn Caswell, anchors and journalists for Dayton 24/7 Now. That’s why Dayton 24/7 Now is bringing listeners the most in-depth journalistic investigation to date on the Erica Baker Case. Nathan and Bryn share exclusive interviews and never-before-seen footage – hoping that maybe, just maybe, what we’ve found could bring her home.
Time was running out for justice. It’s been six long years since Erica’s family last hugged their 9-year-old girl. Then, in 2005, just three days before the statute of limitations would have expired, Christian Gabriel was indicted on charges connected to the disappearance of Erica Baker. In this episode, reporters Bryn Caswell and Nathan Edwards dissect the trial that found Christian Gabriel guilty and whether justice was really served. Then, Erica’s grandmother Pam Schmidt takes justice into her own hands.
