Jacob Wetterling: The Masked Man // 651

Description: In October of 1989, an 11-year-old boy rode his bike to pick up a movie rental in rural Minnesota with his younger brother and a friend. But on their way home, the three boys were stopped by a masked man with a gun. Two of them were ordered to run, but one was kept behind, disappearing into the darkness of that autumn night with the stranger. What followed was a tireless quest for justice at the hands of his family that spanned nearly three decades. This is the murder of Jacob Wetterling.
