On August 27, 1992, 13-year-old Leigh Marine Occhi disappeared from her home in Tupelo, Mississippi, as the remnants of Hurricane Andrew swept through the area. When her mother returned home, Leigh was gone, leaving behind a puzzling crime scene that has baffled investigators for more than three decades.
In this episode of Santana True Crime, Cameron Santana is joined by his brother and co-author of A Murder on Campus, Dr. Brian Santana, to examine the verified timeline, the physical evidence, the mysterious mailing of Leigh's eyeglasses, and the latest developments—including renewed investigative activity in 2025.
Together, they separate established facts from decades of speculation while exploring one of Mississippi's most enduring unsolved disappearances.
Was Leigh abducted by someone she knew? Was the storm an opportunity for an offender? And why are investigators still actively pursuing this case more than 33 years later?
Join us as we take a fresh look at the disappearance of Leigh Occhi.
