<<Throughout that trial, Hensley and Craver were also highlighted. Vail was, after all, the last person to see them both.
Craver was only 15 years old in 1982 when she met Vail. By 17, she had moved away with the man, then in his forties. Eventually, the two were married.

Craver’s mother, Mary Rose, was never a fan of Vail. He was much older than her daughter, and she suspected he was taking advantage of her quest for adventure.
Her fears came true when the two set out to St. Louis for a camping trip. Vail penned her a letter shortly thereafter saying her daughter left without him for Mexico.
Mary Rose didn’t buy it. As she dug into Vail’s history, she came across the names of Hensley and Mary Vail — and her wheels started turning.
She eventually connected with Hensley’s family, and a bond — based on a common enemy — was formed.>>
