Beverly Potts

 On August 24th 1951, 10 year old, Beverly Potts disappeared after attending a Cleveland Press Showmobile performance at Halloran Park, near West 117th & Linnet. After a massive search no sign of her was ever found. Over the years leads would occasionally pop up, but they were always dead ends.
