A brutal crime ripped from the headlines . . . of 1884!
Who snatched 14 year old Lizzie Wilson off the streets that fateful night? Who cut her throat and tossed her corpse into an empty field? For six months, the sheriff and citizens of Roanoke, Virginia searched for the murderer. A flimsy accusation brought two African-American men to trial, but in the end, they walked free.
Family descendant Denise Tanaka has spent years researching this unsolved mystery. For the first time, here is what happened to Lizzie Wilson.
