E18: Ayla Reynolds

Welcome to the Corrupt Podcast! 

 

On the morning of December 17, 2011, 20-month-old Ayla Reynolds would be discovered missing from a home in Waterville, Maine. According to her father, Justin DiPietro, Ayla would be last seen the previous evening wearing green pajamas that said 'Daddy's Princess' on the front. The hunt for Ayla would be the largest criminal investigation in Maine’s history.
