Charlie Brant: Dark Secrets

On January 3rd, 1971, sixteen-year-old Angela Brandt was curled up in front of her family’s new color TV, getting settled back into their home located in Fort Wayne, Indiana, after having spent two weeks vacationing in Florida.

That evening, Angela and her family were watching the TV show, The FBI. "Unknown Victim," Season 6, Episode 16, just aired. An episode where kidnappers abduct a young woman, mistakenly believing she is the daughter of a millionaire. In reality, she is the daughter of a middle-class couple who was driving a car that belonged to the intended victim.

While engrossed in the show, Angela had no idea that, all too soon, she was about to live through a horrific ordeal—one that she had only ever heard about.

After the show, Angela went up to her room to read. Her mother, who was pregnant, Isla Brandt, ran a bath and started reading Time magazine. While her father, Herbert Brandt, was shaving. The night seemed like any other as the family went about their typical, nightly routines.

That is until the quiet stillness of the casual night was shattered in an instant—when gunshots echoed through the house.
