Abducted From The Playground: The Kidnapping of Megan Garner

A Simpler Time True Crime

In the spring of 1991, a three-year-old girl was playing outside with her siblings and cousins while her mother and aunt were inside. She knew the rules her mom had set—especially not to cross the parking lot alone. That simple rule left her briefly apart from the older children, and in those few unguarded moments on the apartment playground, she disappeared. At first, her mother believed she had only wandered off, but panic set in when searches turned up nothing. More than three decades later, not a single trace of the little girl has ever been found, and her case remains cold.
