On the morning of March 24, 2003, Melinda McGee, a 31-year-old licensed practical nurse,

finished working the night shift at Nala Bay, a nursing home.

After getting home at around 8.30 a.m., Melinda called her husband Troy, who was at work.

Before getting off the phone, Melinda said that she was going to sleep until Troy and

their kids returned home later that day.

When Troy and the kids arrived home at around 3.45 p.m., Melinda wasn't there.

Instead, they found signs of a violent struggle including blood inside the house.

Officers quickly arrived at the scene and concluded that Melinda had been assaulted

and abducted.

It's been just over 20 years since Melinda disappeared, and investigators are still searching

for the person responsible.
