Murdered parents and missing teens: Inside the chilling unsolved mystery of Ashley Freeman and Lauria Bible

IT’S been almost been two decades since the world was shaken by one of the most shocking unsolved mysteries to date.

In December 1999, two teenage girls disappeared under some very concerning circumstances.

Ashley Freeman and Lauria Bible, both 16, were enjoying a sleepover in Vinita, Oklahoma, before tragedy struck.

When police arrived at the scene, they discovered the Freeman’s mobile home had been set on fire with two bodies trapped inside.

Shocked officers made the grisly discovery that the Ashley’s mum Kathy and dad Danny were found dead at the scene.

It wasn’t fire that had killed the parents, as they had both been shot in the head before the mobile home caught alight.

Although officers uncovered the bodies of Kathy and Danny, teens Ashley and Lauria are still yet to be found.

After desperately scrambling for information, police were unable to pursue any solid leads.

So just what information do we know about the chilling case?

What evidence has been uncovered?

It was difficult for officers to build a case for the missing girls, as the fire destroyed evidence and reduced the opportunity for DNA testing.

One of the few items recovered as Lauria’s purse, which contained around £150.

This suggests that the culprit may have been an abductor - as if the teens planned to run away, it’s likely they would have taken their money.

It also reduces the likelihood of the crime being a robbery gone wrong, as the criminals would’ve made off with the cash.

Another mysterious piece of evidence was Lauria’s car, which was found near the crime scene with its keys still in the ignition.
