Bus driver Ed Ray and Michael Marshall, 14, took turns pushing up on the heavy manhole cover that was blocking the opening to the hole. Once they were able to move that, Michael started the arduous task of digging to the top.
On July 15, 1976, 26 school children and their bus driver from Chowchilla, California, were kidnapped and buried alive in this tractor trailer.
When investigators executed a warrant to search the estate of Fred Woods' father, they found a treasure trove of evidence. One important piece was this document that says, "plan." It sets out how they were going to commit the kidnapping and what they would do if something went wrong.
The stunned children were herded from the bus into two vans. They were forced to jump from the bus to the vans so that they would not leave behind any footprints.
They soon learned they were inside an old truck trailer and they had been buried 12 feet underground.
Survivor Jennifer Brown Hyde said, "It was just a desperate situation … We thought … if we're going to die, were going to die trying to get out of here." Ed Ray and the kids decided they had to try and to escape before it was too late.
Finally, the vans stopped. The kidnappers had taken them to a rock quarry, 100 miles away from Chowchilla in Livermore, California.
