So when 14-year-old Rachel Domas misses her school bus and doesn't return home, police don't immediately fear the worst.
Her parents have called the police to report her missing, but the most likely explanation, Rachel is just out with her friends and has forgotten to check in with her parents.
and it was the vice principal of the high school, who I had a rapport with, who I knew quite well, asked me what we were doing about the missing girl.
I believe two or three of her girlfriends were in his office at the time and were encouraging him to give us a call to try and find out what happened, because they knew her and she wasn't that type of a girl.
The call from the principal disturbs Miko.
He goes straight to Rachel's home to meet with her parents.
You had the immediate sense that something was wrong.
The parents know their children well, and they're telling you something's wrong and something's wrong.
I remember seeing a photo of her on a wall.
I recognized the face.
Previous years she was in grade school and she walked to school and we had a school post where we crossed kids in the morning and then crossed them again in the afternoon.
So there's a definite human factor that comes into play and also just knowing her personality as little as I did, I couldn't imagine her as a person who would run away from home.
Walked into her bedroom, looked for any kind of luggage missing, clothing missing, a note, any sign of her running away.
And everything was intact.
The only thing missing were the clothes that she wore to school that day and her books.
Across town, psychic Nancy Weber's phone rings.
It's a friend of the missing girl's family, and the woman is frantic.
Oh, my God.
This girl, Rachel, who lives down the block from us, hasn't come home from school.
She's missing.
And I'm listening to this voice.
And as I listen to the voice, images start flashing before me.
I hear the scuffling, and I know it's leaves, and I know the smell of it is woods.
I hear his voice.
I see his eye wandering.
