In December of 2017, a 17-year-old girl headed home to change before volunteering at a holiday concert at her high school. A short while later, a different resident of the household called 911 to report a break in, but by the time her family arrived at the scene, the house was engulfed in flames. But with a confusing investigation and misreporting on the police’s end, the community and family would be left with more questions than answers. So what really happened that night? This is the story of Maggie Long.
