River Donaghey grew up in a cult. Or at least that’s what some people called it. His parents called it a “personal-growth seminar group.” Its leader called it “one big happy family.” But there was a dark side to the world River grew up in. One he never heard about as a kid. In the 1970s and 80s, a self-help company called Lifespring took America by storm. Hundreds of thousands of people walked out of Lifespring as true believers, convinced that the seminars had the power to change the world. ...

On November 8, 1988, Brandy Hutchins, a 14-year-old beloved daughter, told her friends and family that she was pregnant with her boyfriend’s child. Tragically, just four days later, she was discovered murdered in the root cellar of an abandoned house in Coal Hill, Arkansas.
During the police investigation at the house, they found a piece of paper with a positive pregnancy test result next to Brandy's body. However, when Brandy's autopsy results came back, they revealed she was not pregnant and had never been.
It turned out that Brandy had not been honest about her pregnancy. After learning this, the police suspected that the fake positive pregnancy test might have played a role in her death. They focused their attention on two suspects, including Brandy's boyfriend, but unfortunately, they never found enough evidence to make an arrest.
It's been more than 35 years since Brandy was killed, and investigators are still searching for answers…
On November 10, 1988, 14-year-old Brandy Hutchins was dropped off at the “Old John Emery” house on Whippoorwill Road in Coal Hill, Arkansas. Two days later, she was found dead in the root cellar. She’d been shot with a .22 caliber.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Johnson County Sheriff’s Crime Tips hotline at 479-705-8477.
A childhood friend of Brandy's is offering a $5,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of Brandy's murderer.
