95. Murdered: Samantha Humphrey
Samantha Humphrey was a brilliant, funny, and empathetic child taken far too soon. Who would want to harm her?
It was the day after Thanksgiving, 2022, when 14-year-old Samantha went missing in Schenectady, NY. For 3 months, New York State Police worked with various search & rescue organizations to look for the child in and around the last area she was seen - Riverside Park & The Mohawk River.
Meanwhile, a heartbroken family was putting the pieces together to figure out why Samantha left late in the night to meet someone at Riverside Park.
Join Dawn as she sits down with Samantha’s father, Jeff, and her aunt, Nica as they share this heartbreaking story.
There is currently a $20,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction. If you have any information about the murder of Samantha Humphrey, please contact the Schenectady County District Attorney, Robert Carney:
