In 1992, 14-year-old Misty Copsey disappeared after attending the Puyallup Fair in Washington. Misty was a bright, independent teenager who spent the evening at the fair with a friend. Misty attempted to walk home when she missed her bus but never made it. Her mother, Diana Smith, immediately reported her missing, but law enforcement initially dismissed her concerns, treating Misty as a runaway. Her parents, friends, and community launched a frantic search, but Misty was never found, and her disappearance remains unsolved to this day.

Over the years, the case has been marred by missed opportunities and false leads. Items believed to belong to Misty were discovered near a local trail, fueling speculation about foul play. Despite extensive searches and media attention, no arrests were ever made. Investigators have revisited the case multiple times, focusing on potential suspects and advances in DNA technology, but no breakthroughs have emerged.

Join Arlene and Leah as they share Misty's story, the evidence, the timeline, and theories to answer the question: What happened to Misty Copsey on that fateful night?
