Uncover Introduces: Someone Knows Something Season 9
Yes, we all were at one point. They asked us to take polygraphs and I agreed just to rule out being a suspect so that they would get on with the case and find the person that did it. I did it willingly knowing that it would clear me and would help the case. I would have done anything at that time. And you went through two of them.

I did know before the night was over she was dead, though. Call it mother's intuition or whatever, I knew she was gone.

I found that whenever you tried to tell them something, they twisted it into something else. It was never what you were trying to explain. They always just took bits and pieces and made their own sentences.

I've kept most of the clippings for the newspapers all these years. Got those and the posters.

I want it solved. Justice and solved.

No barking. Sure you will. But Hanover does not feel like home anymore. Not to us. Ever since she went missing. No, not to us. It's not our home.

Uncover Introduces: Someone Knows Something Season 9
They were very rude with us. A lot of negativity. Yeah. I actually had phone calls. You get a lot of calls in the middle of the night. We're hanging up, so we had the Hanover police put a trace on our phone. so they could try and find out who was doing the phone calls, but they never did.

No. The OPP wouldn't let us know anything.

They followed up on some other leads, but we've never been told any results from those. We haven't heard from them, so as far as I know, the case is closed.

This is the last place Chrissy had lived.

That front window was the living room. And that's where her and I had spent the morning together watching television. With her laying her head on my lap.

And then she left to go to school. She walked down the other side of the street and around the corner. And that was the last I've seen of her.

She was in a good mood that morning, but she was mad that she had to go to school. We were in the process of packing and moving to another place. And she says, well, even let me stay home and I'll pack all the time instead of going that day. But I said, you can't. Truant officer's waiting.

You know, the best thing to do is to hand her to you. And let you hold her. There, Angel. See?

We put it back together to see what made it work. She loved kids. Real bookworm. Loved going for walks into cricks, catching frogs and what have you.

But she wasn't one to go out to parties or anything like that. Like she'd come home a couple of times and said, well, they're drinking. So I left.

She was against smoking.

Uncover Introduces: Someone Knows Something Season 9
Yeah. She was close to her grandma, my mom.

Uncover Introduces: Someone Knows Something Season 9
Yeah. They spent a lot of time together.

When she didn't show home, I started phoning her friends and my family just to see if maybe she went to one of her friends' house after school or something.

and nobody had seen her or heard from her. So then the family and I, we started going out and looking for her, looking in parks and in the area just to see, you know, if she was someplace else and just hadn't come home yet. We had phoned the police, and they said it was too soon yet to do anything.

What we actually got from the Hanover police chief himself was that his daughter runs away a lot, takes off for days, so mine probably did the same thing. So she never showed home and I sat up all night and waited for her and worried and I even had the feeling too all along that she was down there by the park somewhere.

I kept trying to get them to search more and the church and I, we even got together and formed our own search and we wanted to search down there and they wouldn't let us. They made us go in the opposite direction.

Uncover Introduces: Someone Knows Something Season 9
Yes. They didn't want the public to panic.

I think everybody just wanted to believe she was a runaway. Nobody would actually think of her as something had happened, not in a small town, not to their town. So everybody just told us, no, she's a runaway. She'll come back when she's ready. Even when we were putting up posters, people would take them down. They just didn't want to believe it.
