Where is Christina Carter?

Some stories fade with time. But others—stories like Christina Lynn Carter’s—become heavier with every passing year.

In this episode of The Lost Girls Podcast, LaDonna Humphrey and Amy Smith take listeners back more than fifty years, to one of the most heartbreaking and haunting cases you’ve probably never heard of.

Christina—known lovingly as “Christy”—was a bright, blue-eyed little girl who vanished without a trace on September 17, 1973. She was just three years old.

There was no witness to her disappearance. No blurry photograph of her last steps. No desperate final phone call.

But three weeks later, in the stillness of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, hikers made a horrifying discovery. A discarded duffel bag... and inside it, the nude, bound body of Christy’s mother, Janet Carter—murdered by suffocation.

It took weeks for authorities to identify Janet. But when they did, the horror only deepened. Because Janet hadn’t been traveling alone.

Her little girl, Christina, was missing. And no one had even reported it.

By the time law enforcement realized what they were dealing with, the trail was cold, and the questions were endless.

Where was Christy?
Who murdered her mother?
And why had this young family seemingly vanished without a trace, unnoticed by the world?

Join LaDonna and Amy as they unravel the tragic and forgotten story of Christina Lynn Carter—a child whose life was stolen, and whose case still cries out for answers.

Because silence is not justice. And every girl deserves to be found.
