In this episode of Murder Unscripted, Melissa unpacks the haunting disappearance and murder of 18-year-old Mandy Stavik along the Nooksack River trail in tiny Acme, Washington. While everyone in town had their suspicions about who was responsible, folks kept their secrets to themselves. Three decades later, a discarded soda can, a determined cold-case team, and advanced DNA forensics brought Mandy's killer into the light, and finally closed the case that Acme could never forget.
