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.
Based on a hunch from Dayton 24/7 Now News Director Becky Gulden, state and city law enforcement conduct a new search for Erica Baker at a local park that's never been examined before. Becky realized that a different location south of Kettering more accurately matches the driving directions Christian Gabriel described in his confession letter two decades ago. Tensions and emotions rise as a discovery is made during the search, but will it lead to a breakthrough in the case?
