SHOUT OUT TO STACY M. FOR SUGGESTING THIS EPISODE! THANK YOU!

In October 1989, 11-year-old Jacob Wetterling and his brother, Trevor (age 10), and best friend, Aaron (age 11), convinced Jacob's parents to allow them to ride their bikes to a local convenience store in St. Joseph, Minnesota. It got dark early in the evening in Minnesota in October, and the boys had to take flashlights and wear reflective vests before they could go. The boys made it to the convenience store, however, on their way home they were stopped by a man who abducted Jacob. Listen to this week's episode to hear more about the decades-long story of what happened to Jacob Wetterling.
