On April 26th 1996, in Washington State, a loving mother of 2 left her home to run errands in preparation for her son's 5th birthday. She never made it to her son's party. She was never seen again. In this episode, Anne gives us the victimology and case of Sandi Johson. It's Karen's turn in the kitchen and she bakes up a yummy local favorite - Pawley's Island Pie. It's like if a chocolate chess pie and a walnut pie fell in love and made ooey, gooey goodness and they named it Pawley's Island Pie.
