Episode 201: Where is Asha Degree?

In the early morning hours of February 14, 2000, for reasons unknown, Asha Degree went missing from Shelby, North Carolina. She was only nine years old. Asha packed her backpack and left her home and was seen walking along Highway 18 despite the heavy rain and wind that night. The following morning, her parents discovered her missing from her bedroom and she has never been seen or heard from since.
