The Craigslist rape of Sarah Kastovny and disappearance of Asha Degree

December 2009 in Wyoming - Sarah Kastovny finds an odd Craigslist add. The caption read: 'Need an aggressive man with no concern or regard for women. If interested, contact Sarah,'" providing her address and a picture of her. The ad gets removed after a few days but unfortunately it's too late and Sarah is attacked. Then we cover the case of Asha Degree. On Valentine's day in 2000 the 10-year-old girl sneaks out of her apartment in the middle of the night, never to be seen again. While authorities look for her, suspecting another person might have had a hand in her disappearance, her family struggles to get media attention to help find their daughter.
