112. Taken: The Murder of Tori Stafford

On April 8, 2009, eight-year-old Tori Stafford disappeared while walking home from school in Woodstock Ontario. CCTV captures her walking away from the school with her abductor.
News of her kidnapping spread across the nation and led to one of the largest searches in the Ontario Provincial Police history.
Although her brutal captors were arrested and charged 6 weeks after Tori was taken,
her broken body wouldn't be found for 103 days.
