Big Bear, CA. A resort, mountain town in Southern California’s San Bernadino mountains, popular with tourists from near and far throughout all seasons. About 15 miles out of town is the small town of Running Springs. It's there in a ravine off CA Highway 330 the body of 28 year old Cori Desmond was found wrapped in trash bags. Cori was from Redondo Beach, about 100 miles away. The question stood for investigators, how did she end up in a ravine so far away and who murdered her? This is her story.
