What happened to 14-year-old Thora Chamberlain, who was abducted on the way to watch a school football game one Friday afternoon? The main suspect, who had a cunning ruse and a bold disguise, went on the run across America with the FBI hot on his trail. Even after he was captured, he continued to protest his innocence until the end.
