On February 14th, 2015 — Valentine’s Day — and the last night that Erica would be seen alive. She and her on-again, off-again boyfriend left for a popular nightclub in Costa Mesa: Sutra Lounge. By the next morning, she had vanished. Her abandoned Honda Civic would be found two miles from her home, covered in dust, 2 parking tickets, and her purse left inside. Her body would only be found two months later, discarded in the Cleveland National Forest.
This case is very special. It's special because I have been in contact with Erica’s family to work on this episode and they need our help. Please listen and share this episode so we can shed some light on who Erica Alonso was and why this case can and should be solved.
