MURDERED: Amber Hagerman

Written By M Diaries

Have you ever stood in a long line at the grocery store and looked at all of the magazines with salacious headlines about heinous crimes? Or stood outside of a bathroom at Walmart and gazed at the massive wall of missing children flyers? Do you ever wonder what happened to those children? Are they okay? What is their story? 

This is the story of one of those children. Except everyone knew her name, and many people still do.

Her’s is a story that led an entire society to rethink safety and create legislation that has saved hundreds of children’s lives. 

It all started with one little girl from Texas. 

Her name was Amber Hagerman.
