Investigators say they will never give up looking for the body of Sara Anne Wood. The 12-year-old was abducted in 1993 in central New York. Even though her killer, Lewis Lent, is behind bars, authorities say he refuses to give her family the peace of knowing where Sara is. "48 Hours" correspondent Erin Moriarty has been on the case from the beginning and reports on the unending search for Sara.
Dusty Wood: My sister's life ended. … And I couldn't stop that. … Someone hurt her and took her life. … I know at the time I felt like could have done something but I couldn't.
It's been a little over three decades since his 12-year-old little sister disappeared, but for Dusty Wood, memories of Sara have not faded with time.
Dusty Wood: She was an exuberant person. She was excited to be alive. Every picture you see of her, it's like a big beaming smile, those bright blue eyes.
Dusty says the two of them had a lot in common.
