EP. 107 ILLINOIS - DARK FAMILY SECRETS: The Disappearance of Rachel Mellon Skemp

67 min • 21 april 2023

In January of 1996, 13 year old Rachel Mellon Skemp wasn’t feeling very well, so she stayed home from school. Later that day, she would completely vanish from her home, leaving no clue as to where she went behind. Over 27 years later, no one knows what happened to her. During the investigation into her disappearance, however, detectives would uncover Rachel’s diary… And before her disappearance, they discovered that she had poured her heart out onto those pages, revealing a very dark family secret. And possibly even leaving clues as to who may have harmed her. You’re listening to Murder in America.
