Unseen Evil: The Tragic Abduction of Hailey Owens

What if you witnessed a terrible crime and couldn't stop it? Join us as we recount the excruciatingly tragic case of 10-year-old Hailey Owens, whose life was brutally cut short on February 18, 2014. Hailey's abduction by Craig Wood, despite heroic efforts by eyewitnesses Carlos and Michelle Edwards, led to a frantic investigation and a heartbreaking conclusion. This episode takes you through the chilling timeline of that fateful day, the relentless hunt for her abductor, and the gut-wrenching discovery that left a community shattered.

We'll also explore Craig Michael Wood's troubling background and the shocking discrepancies that led to him working around children despite his dark inclinations. As we dissect the trial that ended in his death sentence, we also touch upon the arrest of Haley's stepfather for unrelated charges, casting an even darker shadow over this story. Hear about the community's emotional recovery, including the creation of Haley's Law and the dedication of Haley's Playground, as we honor Haley's memory and reflect on the enduring impact of her tragic story. Share your thoughts and personal stories with us, and join our discussion on this haunting case that continues to resonate deeply.
