From this decision, Marcy will lose her life and not be found for 2 more days. This story, because of what happened in between Marcy’s Death and until she is found, became a national discussion that inspired a Hollywood movie and took extreme paths which seemed to lose sight that a 14-year-old girl, who had a future ahead of her, lost it all. On this episode of California True Crime, we discuss the Murder of Marcy Conrad.
