[PrayersForMaura]

Another tear-jerker. I couldn't stop reading this one.

Halloween will again be celebrated at the Hoynes home, 23 years after tragedy.
The news came to Wendy Castaneda on Halloween 1984 when, dressed as a lion, the then-16-year-old was pulled from her biology class.
Her cousin was waiting in the hall, crying.
"Robin was stabbed at work last night," her cousin said of Castaneda's sister.
"Did she die?" Castaneda remembers asking.
"Yeah, she did."

The upcoming episode of NBC's Dateline: Secrets Uncovered delves into the grisly murder of 21-year-old Robin Hoynes in 1984, a case that remained unsolved for over two decades.

Revisiting the crime on August 3, 2022 is the upcoming episode of Season 10, titled The Night Before Halloween. New episodes are released weekly at 8 pm. The official synopsis for the episode reads:

"It takes a special eye to spot the thing that's out of place at a crime scene; in this case, that thing looks so insignificant, no one even knows what it is or what it means; it takes a team of determined investigators almost two decades to find out."
