本集播客详细讲述了1989年雅各布·韦特林绑架谋杀案的始末。案件发生在明尼苏达州圣约瑟夫，11岁的雅各布和两个朋友晚上骑车去租电影，在回家途中遭遇一名持枪男子，该男子命令其中两个男孩逃跑，并带走了雅各布。此后，警方展开了大规模搜捕，但始终没有找到雅各布的下落。案件调查过程中，警方曾将目光转向过丹尼·海因里希，但由于证据不足，未能将其绳之以法。直到2015年，警方通过DNA证据将海因里希与另一起儿童绑架案联系起来，最终将其逮捕。在面对证据后，海因里希认罪，并带领警方找到了雅各布的遗体。此案的侦破历时27年，最终依靠DNA技术和海因里希的认罪才得以告破。本案也促进了多项旨在改善儿童绑架案件应对措施的立法和计划的出台，包括雅各布·韦特林基金会、韦特林法案和琥珀警报。

#078 - Sunday night is typically a quiet night, but not on this night. On October 22nd, 1989 three young boys convince their parents to let them ride their bikes. The kids ride in the dark to rent a movie. They shine flashing lights, wear bright clothes, and stay together. Only four blocks to get home. Suddenly a man emerges from the shadows. He pulls out a gun. Points the gun. And orders the kids face down on the ground.
