Polly Klaas was just 12 years old when she was kidnapped on October 1, 1993, from her residence in Petaluma, California, during a slumber party with two classmates of the same age. Her abduction ignited a nationwide search effort, drawing in thousands of volunteers and making her story widely recognized across the country.
Tragically, the search for Polly concluded two months later when her body was discovered in a wooded area approximately 50 miles from her home, having been strangled. The perpetrator, Richard Allen Davis, an ex-convict with a documented history of substance abuse and on parole for a prior kidnapping, incited public outrage and calls for stricter sentencing laws.
In response to Polly's murder, California voters enacted the three strikes and you’re out law a year later, which mandated longer prison sentences for repeat offenders like Davis.
