48 Hours “The Daughters Who Disappeared” October 21 2023 Recap & Preview
48 HOURS correspondent Erin Moriarty, who embarked on the investigation in 1997, is bringing closure to a case that has spanned more than two decades. The case revolves around the disappearance of 12-year-old Laura Smither from Friendswood, Texas, in 1997. What remained unknown at the time of her vanishing was that Laura had fallen prey to a serial killer. This malevolent individual, William Reece, would go on to murder three other young women in the same year before eventually being identified through DNA evidence.
Moriarty, unwaveringly committed to this case since its inception, now presents the latest developments in “The Daughters Who Disappeared.” This episode will be rebroadcast on Saturday, October 21, 2023.
