HOLLY HILL, SOUTH CAROLINA | I researched and wrote this episode, which begins in May of 1993, when 18-year-old student Charlotte Childs was eagerly anticipating her high school graduation. Charlotte was busy attending all sorts of pre-graduation celebrations in the lead-up to the big day, including a get-together for her fellow high school seniors the evening before. But after dropping her best friend home in the early hours of graduation day, Charlotte never made it home. Instead, her parents were woken by a call in the dark early hours that their daughter was in the hospital, fighting for her life.
