In this episode of Justice Seekers, attorneys Natalie and Katrina dive into one of Iowa’s most haunting unsolved mysteries, the disappearance of beloved news anchor Jodi Huisentruit.

On June 27, 1995, Jodi vanished from her Mason City apartment complex just hours before she was set to anchor the morning news. Her red Mazda Miata was found in the parking lot, belongings scattered, and drag marks on the pavement, but Jodi was gone.

Nearly three decades later, her case remains unsolved. Natalie and Katrina break down the evidence, timeline, and the key persons of interest including Jodi’s friend John Van Cise, convicted rapist Tony DeWon Jackson, and serial offender Thomas Corscadden. They explore investigative gaps, grand jury proceedings, and the sealed warrants that may still hold answers.

Could the truth about Jodi’s disappearance still be hidden in plain sight?
