Summary

Twenty-two year old Carla Vicentini dreamed of going to America. Living in a small town in Brazil, the young woman wanted to experience the culture and life of the states. In January of 2006, she obtained a work visa and soon found herself in Newark, NJ. After her living arrangements didn’t work out, she and a friend moved into an apartment owned by a friend of her father’s.

Just three days later, Carla would vanish and between her landlord, an unidentified male and a host of theories, she has never been found. There were weird phone calls, contradictory statements and an utter lack of media coverage. Where is Carla and what happened to her that fateful night?
