Summary
On September 12, 1987, 50-year-old security guard Dale Kerstetter clocked in at Corning Glass Works in Bradford, Pennsylvania and was never seen again. Surveillance footage captured him calmly walking off-camera beside a masked intruder, pausing only to look directly into the lens. When the masked man reappeared hours later, he dragged a large bag from the building and left with $220,000 worth of platinum. Thirty-five years later, investigators still don't know whether Dale was a victim or a willing accomplice. If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow The Final Hours to never miss a case!
