Payton Moreland: 本期节目讨论了9岁女孩Amber Hagerman的绑架案,以及这一悲剧如何促成Amber Alert系统的建立,该系统已拯救了无数儿童的生命。Amber于1996年1月13日失踪,四天后被发现遇害。案件发生在德克萨斯州阿灵顿市,一个看似安全的家庭友好型城市。Amber的父母关系破裂,母亲Donna独自抚养Amber和弟弟Ricky。Donna曾参与一部关于单亲母亲的纪录片拍摄,纪录片中的影像资料在Amber失踪后成为重要的线索。案件调查过程中,警方排除了Amber的父亲Richard和一位家庭朋友Mike Thompson的嫌疑。尽管有一位目击者提供了嫌疑人和车辆的描述,但由于证据不足,案件一度陷入僵局。Amber的尸体在距离绑架地点不远处的一条小溪中被发现,由于暴雨冲刷,尸体上的证据很难收集。验尸结果显示Amber死于颈部割伤,没有其他严重外伤。警方怀疑凶手熟悉案发地点附近的公寓楼。尽管案件调查一度陷入困境,但Amber的母亲Donna将精力投入到预防儿童绑架事件上,并最终促成了Amber Alert系统的建立。Amber Alert系统最初的几次使用并未取得成功,但在1998年成功解救了一个婴儿。2003年,美国总统布什签署了《保护法案》,将Amber Alert系统正式纳入美国法律体系。2021年,警方表示他们获得了可能属于Amber凶手的DNA证据。阿灵顿警方表示,Amber Hagerman的案件仍然在调查中,并呼吁公众提供线索。 Garrett Moreland: 在节目中,Garrett Moreland主要与Payton Moreland一起讨论了案件的细节,并表达了对案件的看法和感受,例如对凶手行为的谴责以及对Amber Hagerman家人的同情。他还参与了对Amber Alert系统有效性的讨论,并对该系统能够拯救其他儿童表示欣慰。此外,他还分享了一些个人经历,例如他自己的童年经历以及他训练宠物狗的经验,这些内容与主要案件讨论内容关联性较弱,但丰富了节目的内容。
