The Girl Who Met The Wolfman | Arlene Arkinson 1994 Cold Case
Description
In 1994, 15-year-old Arlene Arkinson vanished after a night out at a disco in Donegal. The last man seen with her? Robert Howard — a convicted child rapist with a chilling past and a trail of destruction behind him.
Despite being the prime suspect, he walked free. Her body was never found. And justice? It was never delivered.
This is the disturbing story of a teenager’s disappearance, a predator hiding in plain sight, and a justice system that failed to stop him before he killed again.
🔍 Did Robert Howard murder Arlene Arkinson? Why was he never convicted? And why—after all these years—is her body still missing?
