MURDERED: Jodi Huisentruit
On June 27, 1995, 27-year-old Jodi Huisentruit was supposed to be at the news station at 3:00 a.m. When Jodi wasn’t there by 4:00 a.m., the producer called Jodi and woke her up. Jodi said she overslept and would be in ASAP.
When Jodi didn’t show up for the 6:00 a.m. newscast, the producer filled in for the hourlong show. When the newscast was over, the producer asked a coworker to call the police to do a welfare check.
When police arrived at Jodi’s apartment complex, they saw signs of a struggle in the parking lot. It was pretty obvious that Jodi had been abducted.
Police have never named any suspects or made any arrests in Jodi’s case. Her body has never been found; although, she was declared legally dead in 2001.
Anyone with information on Jodi’s case can reach out to the Mason City Police Department at (641) 421-3636. Information can also be provided to the Iowa Department of Criminal Investigations at (515) 725-6010 or dciinfo@dps.state.ia.us.
