A teenager's bicycle was found abandoned on a rural Ohio road. The evidence that followed led investigators to a nearby man—and to a belt that became central at trial. This documentary reconstructs the July 2016 disappearance of Sierah Joughin near Delta, Ohio, and the search that brought James Worley into focus. Investigators examined the bike, phone records, physical evidence, and DNA while building a timeline around a suspect who lived close to the search area. The video explains how the belt evidence was interpreted, why Worley's property mattered, and how the prosecution secured a conviction and death sentence in 2018. If you enjoy regional true crime cases solved through one overlooked forensic detail, this case offers a tense and fact-driven investigation.
