Kara Robinson Chamberlain, a survivor of a serial killer, is now hosting a true-crime series called ‘Somebody Knows Something’ to help solve unsolved cases. Chamberlain was abducted by Richard Evonitz when she was 15 years old and held captive for 18 hours. She managed to escape and later worked as a school resource officer. Chamberlain’s experience has driven her to help families of missing persons and victims of crime.
Chamberlain’s Story
Chamberlain’s abduction occurred in 2002 when she was at a friend’s home in South Carolina. Evonitz pulled into the driveway, and Chamberlain initially felt a sense of unease, but she dismissed her intuition. He approached her with pamphlets, asked if her parents were home, and then held a gun to her neck, threatening to shoot her if she screamed. Chamberlain was forced into a dark storage container in his car and was repeatedly sexually assaulted at his apartment.
Chamberlain trusted her instinct to survive and quietly memorized details about her surroundings. When Evonitz fell asleep, she managed to free herself from her bindings and escape. She found people in a parking lot and pleaded with them to take her to the police.
Chamberlain’s Mission
Chamberlain’s mission is to help families of missing persons and victims of crime. She hosts the true-crime series ‘Somebody Knows Something’ to revisit cold cases and generate new leads. Chamberlain works alongside loved ones of the victims to help solve the cases. She believes that by sharing her story and the stories of others, she can make a difference and help bring closure to the families.
