*** This episode was intentionally released on August 5th, which is what would have been Asha Degrees 30th Birthday*** On February 14th, 2000 A 9 year old girl named Asha Degree disappeared from Shelby, North Carolina. For reasons unknown, She had left home on her own sometime between 4 and 5 AM and was last seen walking in the dark on a narrow rural highway during a storm. A year and a half later a construction worker unearthed her book bag on the same highway over 20 miles from where she was last seen. Could the contents of her backpack hold the clues that can help solve her case? and does a new theory provide real answers as to where Asha was headed that morning 20 years ago and why she had to sneak out of her house to get there. If you have questions on the cases covered in this episode or others you can send them to THEYDISAPPEARED@gmail.com and I may answer it in a future episode!
