Episode 165: Disappearance of Kayla Berg

from Survived · host Sophie and Lexi

Hello      Welcome back This is survived with Sophie and LexiWe started telling our survived story (in college) and we are moving on to being you guys moreThrough many different topics Kayla Mae Berg was born on a late summer day, August 29, 1994, in Wausau, Wisconsin, and spent her childhood roaming the gentle rolling hills of central Wisconsin. By August 11, 2009, the air in Antigo held a hot, muggy hush as the sun dipped toward the horizon. Fifteen-year- old Kayla climbed into a friend’ s car just after dusk, hoping to see her on-again, off-again boyfriend. She never came home. That evening, after a brief stop at the McDonald’ s on 5th Avenue— where the golden glow of the menu board reflected in her curious eyes— Kayla was driven to a vacant, half-renovated house in Wausau. No one saw her leave, and no trace of her has been found since. Fourteen years— and counting—of tireless searches, interviews, and dead ends have left her family and investigators without answers. The case remains open, the mystery unsolved.
