When 16-year-old Skylar Neese disappeared from her West Virginia home one summer night, surveillance footage recorded her sneaking out of her window and getting into an unidentifiable car.

Six months after she disappeared, there was a shocking break in the case when one of her best friends, Rachel Shoaf, confessed that she and another friend, Shelia Eddy, stabbed Skylar to death in the woods. ABC News correspondent Ryan Smith reports on the twists and turns of the case, unraveling the truth and possible motive behind the shocking crime.
