Asha Degree Case - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I read a buzzfeed article the other night about mysterious cases.

Being the true crime buff that I am, I recognized most of them. But this one case in particular stood out to me, as I'd never heard any mention of it, and just found the whole thing so bizarre!

I would love to discuss the case. Here is an overview from Wikipedia.

Asha Jaquilla Degree (born August 5, 1990) is an African American female from Shelby, North Carolina, United States. In the early morning hours of February 14, 2000, for reasons unknown, she packed her bookbag, left her family home north of the city and began walking along nearby North Carolina Highway 18 despite heavy rain and wind. Several passing motorists saw her; when one turned around at a point 1.3 miles (2.1 km) from her home and began to approach her, she left the roadside and ran into a wooded area. In the morning, her parents discovered her absence. No one has seen her since.

Here is the link for anyone who wishes to read more on it.

Yeah, I didn't think it had ever been featured.
