Lost and Found: The Disappearance of Rog...

The Fall Line®
About this episode

22-year-old Roger Aguirre disappeared on November 20, 1975, in Chicago, Illinois. He was one of many young men and boys who went missing in the city in the '70s—and like them, he received no attention from the media. Roger's sister, who'd spent years searching for him after they were separated as children, was sure he wouldn't simply leave. When his family discovered Roger had potentially crossed paths with John Wayne Gacy, they went to Cook County authorities about the remaining unidentified victims, and whether Roger could be a match. It was supposed to be one possible avenue in the search—but instead, created a new mystery.

Season 20 covers cold cases in Georgia, Illinois, and Montana, and the efforts of victims' families to reconnect with law enforcement and gain media attention for their loved ones.
