In 1996, a group of German tourists arrived in the United States for what was supposed to be a fun vacation. When they did not return home by their scheduled date, family members alerted authorities and a search began. While the remains of one individual were found in the desert, the locations of the others remain a mystery. Today, we look at the strange case of the Death Valley Germans.
