Tabitha Tuders
On the morning of April 29, 2003, Bo Tuders woke his daughter Tabitha up for school and put her favorite TV show on. He said goodbye as he left for work. 13-year-old Tabitha always got herself off to school, and this day was no different. Tabitha left her home that morning and walked toward her bus stop. But then she disappeared. Police initially misclassified Tabitha as a runaway, but her family knew in their hearts that she didn’t leave on her own. Was Tabitha abducted by a stranger, or by someone whom she thought she could trust?
