About this episode
Just before New Year’s Eve, 2017, a 19-year-old woman was found murdered in a wooded area of a Colorado farm. When police took note of her recent Facebook post about a long-time stalker, questions and red flags were raised. But in a twist of events, text messages led police to a suspicious and disturbing Craigslist post associated with the case. This is the story of Natalie Bollinger.
