Teen sisters Maggie and Mary Jenkins took a bus from their home in New Jersey to St Petersburg, Florida, in April of 1973. Maggie, 18, and Mary, 16, then hitchhiked from St. Petersburg to Key West and stayed with friends for a few weeks. On May 2, 1973, the Jenkins sisters had bus fare wired from their father but opted to hitchhike instead, as the teens were last seen alive on Stock Island, Florida, hitchhiking. On May 3, 1973, the bodies of Maggie and Mary Jenkins were found in Key Largo, about 100 miles from where they were last seen alive. Joseph Scott Morgan and Dave Mack open up the file and examine the investigation done by law enforcement at the time to try and determine why it took more than 50 years to identify a suspect! Another case involving great work by the original investigators and the new techniques created by Othram!
