In the 3rd part of our Route 29 series, we cover the heartbreaking case of Morgan Dana Harrington- a 20-year-old Virginia Tech student who vanished during a Metallica concert in Charlottesville, VA, in 2009. What begins as a fun night out with friends quickly turns into a chilling mystery filled with bizarre witness account, strange behavior, and unsettling evidence.  We explore Morgan's final hours, the search efforts led by her devoted parents, and the eerie twists that would only make sense years later- after another young woman disappears nearby. This episode not only honors Morgan's memory but also sheds light on how her family transformed their pain into purpose through advocacy and education.    Sources: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_Morgan_Dana_Harrington   https://www.cnn.com/2014/10/17/us/virginia-girl-anniversary-harrington-death   https://news.virginia.edu/content/two-years-later-morgan-harrington-legacy-continues   https://www.cnn.com/2014/09/29/us/morgan-harrington-virginia-tech   https://www.wtvr.com/2019/10/17/morgan-harrington-remembered-a-decade-after-she-was-abducted-and-murdered-in-charlotesville   https://c-ville.com/morgan_harrington_a_month_into_the_case/   http://helpsavethenextgirl.com/about/history/   https://disappearedblog.com/morgan-harrington/   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IRrK8PPd5rY   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lGJJezdnXTo   https://anatomyofmurder.com/save-the-next-girl-part-1/   https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/murder-bird/id1547857027   https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/true-crime-the-back-to-school-killer/id1608728701?i=1000667906780&l=fr-FR   https://pandora.com/podcast/shockingly-wicked-a-true-crime-podcast/intertwined-the-story-of-morgan-harrington-and-hannah-graham/PE:1205908674   True Crime Garage Podcast The Back to School Killer Part 1 and Part 2    Strong, T.
