Just three days after Christmas of 1964, in the quiet town of Garfield Heights, Ohio a sixteen-year-old girl was getting ready to meet up with friends. When her friend shows up at their agreed upon time, she does not answer the door. Later that afternoon, the teen's father would come home to a horrific discovery – his oldest daughter dead on her bedroom floor, the victim of a vicious homicide. As detectives dig into her life, they find out from those closest to her that she had recently become a stalking victim – something that they didn’t even really have a word for back then. This stalker has never been identified, nor has her killer, leaving the possibility that they weren’t one in the same. Beverly and the women in her family had prophetic moments around the time of her death about her death, adding a haunting element to the tragic mystery. But believe it or not, even though the release of this episode is the week of the 60th anniversary of her disappearance, cold case detectives are still working with carefully preserved evidence, and their case is expanding. May this be the year that Beverly’s case is finally solved.
