Sara Bushland: Missing Since April 3rd, 1996

On the crisp afternoon of April 3, 1996, Sara Bushland, a 15-year-old sophomore at Spooner High School, stepped off her school bus and into the rural quiet of her family’s driveway in Spring Lake, Wisconsin. It was a moment that should have been ordinary—just another end to a school day, another trek home—but it would mark the beginning of a chilling mystery that has haunted her family and community for nearly three decades. Sara’s life had been turbulent leading up to that fateful day. She had recently moved from Colorado to Wisconsin, seeking refuge from the strict rules of her father’s house, only to find herself ensnared in new tensions and conflicts. Living with her mother, stepfather, and stepbrothers in their converted garage home on a sprawling 65-acre property, Sara was grappling with the typical angst of adolescence, compounded by a mix of new and older friends, some of whom were much older.
