She was four months pregnant, cheerful, and had just dropped a friend home. But what happened next would spark one of the most haunting and baffling missing persons cases in American history. While on the phone, Angie suddenly became alarmed by a strange man circling the parking lot in a truck. Her fiancé, Rob Shafer, was still on the line when he heard her scream—and then, silence. He raced to the scene, even passing a suspicious vehicle speeding in the opposite direction. But Angela was gone, and no trace of her has ever been found. Was it a random abduction? Or was Angela targeted? And who was the mysterious man with the “fish mural” on his truck? In this episode of Crime at Bedtime, we journey back to that fateful night, revisiting every chilling detail, from Angela’s final moments and Rob’s frantic search, to the strange inconsistencies that followed in the investigation. Featuring eyewitness accounts, evolving theories, and the lasting impact on those who loved her, this is a story that still grips the nation more than three decades later. Somewhere, someone knows what happened to Angela Hammond. This is her story.
