The Disappearance of Rosa Maria Valentin (Connecticut)

When 16-year-old Rosa Maria Valentin didn’t return home from work in Hartford, Connecticut one July night in 1986, her family jumped into action to try and find her. But at every turn, the family’s fears were dismissed and Rosa was regarded as a runaway…That is, until more than a year later when another teenage girl disappeared under similar circumstances.
