The Adam Walsh murder case is one of the most infamous in Florida history. In 1981, six-year-old Adam Walsh was abducted from a shopping mall in Hollywood, Florida, and was later found murdered. The case was highly publicized due to the fact that Adam's father, John Walsh, was the host of the popular TV show America's Most Wanted. The investigation into the murder was one of the largest in Florida history, but it would take over 25 years for the case to be solved. In 2006, police announced that they had finally identified the killer as Ottis Toole, a serial killer who had died in prison in 1996. The case was significant not only because of the brutality of the crime, but also because of the impact it had on the Walsh family and the community.
