This week's exclusive episode goes into the story of this sweet 14 year old girl who was murdered on this day in 1960. It was a Sunday, and she had gone to church with her family, eaten lunch with her family, and then taken her 5 year old sister to the movies. On the way home, she was abducted in front of her little sister less than a block from her home.

A 5 year old eye-witness, a horrified small town, and bad guy with a badge...This story is worth the listen. Subscribe to Murdered Midwest for just $5 per month and get access to Nancy's story along with 100+ other exclusive Murder episodes that are deeper and darker than our free content.

Unfortunately both of our laptops crashed out this week. On the same day. (Only us, right? 🤦🏻‍♀️)

This means we were not able to record/edit/release a new episode this week.

Here is our unlocked episode of Ed Gein! We thought you may wanna give it another listen in preparation for the new Netflix show about him coming on October 4th !
