Christopher Wolfenbarger, what a day one

Melissa Wolfenbarger disappeared in 1998, and her case has been framed as a decades-long fight for justice. But what we saw in court this week tells a very different story: missing evidence, a VHS tape that never surfaced, and the sister admitting they didn’t start actively pushing the case until 2015. The defense even suggested the family may have wanted Christopher blamed for the m#rder to increase the chance that her father would stay in prison longer. The media version of relentless advocacy? Doesn’t match reality. In this video, we break down how the courtroom story clashes with pretrial coverage — and whether the state even has enough to prove its case.
