flag FBI and Oklahoma investigators search a former mine shaft for the 1999 missing teens, Lauria Bible and Ashley Freeman, believed kidnapped and killed after their mother’s murder.

flag FBI and Oklahoma investigators are searching a former mine shaft near the Kansas-Oklahoma border for the remains of Lauria Bible and Ashley Freeman, two teens who vanished in 1999 after their mother was murdered and their home burned. flag The girls, last seen on December 30, 1999, are believed to have been kidnapped and killed, though their bodies have never been found. flag The search, ongoing as of March 2026, follows years of investigation, new evidence, and the passage of "Lauria and Ashley’s Law," which mandates that accessory murderers serve at least 85% of their sentence. flag Only one suspect, Ronnie Busick, was convicted and served a short sentence, prompting renewed public and legal focus. flag The effort involves specialized equipment and experts, with families hoping for closure after more than 25 years.
