Weird True Crime
This is Part 2 of the abduction and murder of Dorothy Jane Scott.In 1980, Dorothy Jane Scott was abducted from the parking lot of UC Irvine Medical Center while helping an ill coworder. Her car was found in flames the next morning, and she was never seen again. Her parents were tormented for years by calls from a man claiming to be the one who took her. When her body was found in August of 1984, very few questions were answered. There are several theories about what happened to Dorothy, but no new evidence has been found.
