The Disappearance of Mary Shotwell Little - A New Investigation

Mary Shotwell Little vanished from Lenox Square mall in Atlanta on October 14, 1965. The 25-year-old newlywed's car was found the next day with blood evidence and unexplained mileage, launching one of the city's most intensive searches.

Now, a decade-long investigation by civilian researchers has uncovered previously unseen FBI files and identified new leads in Mary's cold case. The new documentary THE VANISHING: The 60-Year Unsolved Disappearance of Mary Shotwell Little reveals their discoveries and explores fresh theories about what happened to the Atlanta bank secretary.
