Today we discuss the case of two middle school girls from Oregon City, Oregon that were murdered by Ward Weaver III. Ashley Pond went missing one morning on her way to the bus stop. A couple months later, her friend Miranda Gaddis went missing as well. It took months for the police to finally start looking into Ward Weaver but their break in the case of the missing girls came when Ward attacked his own son's girlfriend.
