When five year old Myretta Jones didn't return from the grocery store, her grandmother called her mother Lorene. Deputies and neighbors searched that night and came upon a gruesome discovery. Reminiscent of the 1956 movie, The Bad Seed, this case takes us way back to 1947 and the story of a young girl, Joyce Nichols, and her grizzly acts.
