*APOLOGIES FOR THE MUFFLED AUDIO IN THIS EPISODE* Sisters Barbara and Patricia Grimes, age 15 and 12 respectively, were described as being inseparable. Like many other teenage girls in their day, they were huge Elvis Presley fans, and on the evening of December 28, 1956, the 2 girls left their home for a trip to the movie theater to see Elvis's movie "Love Me Tender". They promised their mother that they would be back home by midnight, but they would never return home. Their disappearance would launch one of the largest missing persons cases ever investigated in Chicago's history. News of their disappearance spread wide, and even made it to Elvis Presley himself, who personally made a plea for the 2 girls to return home. They wouldn't be found until nearly a month later, on January 22, 1957, when their nude bodies were found along a deserted road. Authorities initially determined that they had died on the night of their disappearance, but many witnesses would come forward to say that they had seen the sisters in the days that followed them vanishing. What happened to Barbara and Patricia Grimes? We're they really alive in the days following their disappearance? If so, who were the men they had supposedly been seen with? It's been six decades since the sisters were murdered, and this case remains unsolved.
