97. Unfinished: The Murder of Wilma June Nissen
An investigator, determined to identify a Jane Doe. A young woman, determined to meet her birth mother. Their paths would cross in 2006, and a murder investigation would begin.
In October 1978, 23-year-old Wilma June Nissen was found discarded on the side of a road in rural Iowa. For nearly 3 decades, she was known only as Jane Doe.
This week on Method & Madness, we sit down with Wilma’s daughter, Krissi, who has found purpose in advocating for her mother’s cold case.
