'Eric' is a foray into one man's imagination and New York in the 1980s. But is its central crime based on a true story? The new Netflix series stars Benedict Cumberbatch and Gaby Hoffmann as Vincent and Cassie Anderson, two New York City parents whose 9-year-old son, Edgar goes missing after walking alone to school.
Hernandez was found guilty and sentenced to 25 years to life in prison in 2017. Patz's random disappearance had lingering effects across U.S society, changing the way law enforcement responded to reports of missing children and making parents much leerier of leaving their kids unattended.
