A devoutly religious husband and father is revealed as a murderous sex addict in this true crime case featured on 48 Hours Mystery.
In November of 2001, Colorado family man Michael Blagg called 911 in distress over his missing wife and six-year-old daughter, exclaiming “Oh my god . . . there’s blood all over!” But frantic search parties and Michael’s anguished pleas on national television came up empty. Then the investigation stumbled across Blagg’s dark side.
A devout born-again Christian, Blagg was addicted to Internet porn. He also reportedly abused his wife and indulged in the services of hired escorts. Then in June 2002, nearly a year after her disappearance, his wife’s mummified remains were found in a local landfill. And Michael quickly left town.
Extradited from Georgia, Blagg was charged with first-degree murder. But the explosive trial was rocked by even more bizarre revelations, stunning twists, and an unspeakable mystery that haunted the country: What made Blagg do it? And, even more disturbing, whatever happened to little Abby?

Robert Scott discovered that true-crime writing is incredibly interesting, as ‘You have to be part journalist, part detective and part analytical writer for the true crime market.’ Robert’s books have detailed the lives of killers and victims, police detectives and FBI agents—from California to Iowa, from the Canadian border to the Mexican border.
