The Night Marta Disappeared

On January 24, 2009, Marta del Castillo, a 17-year-old girl from Seville, disappeared after leaving home to meet Miguel Carcaño. Within hours, what initially seemed like a teenage outing turned into a national tragedy. What followed was a nightmare for her family: contradictory accounts, false confessions, a body that was never found, and a justice system that, despite convictions, was never able to bring closure.
