On this week's #TrueCrimeTuesday, Gary and Shannon look into the 1976 Chowchilla Kidnapping - a chilling abduction of 26 children and their bus driver.

This is one of the largest mass kidnappings in U.S. history. 3 masked gunmen stole a bus that carried 26 children and their bus driver. The kidnappers would drive them 100 miles away and would bury the bus, children, and driver 12 feet underground in a rock quarry. The driver and children were able to dig themselves out and escape, but over 40 years later, this case is still making headlines.
