Imagine being wrongfully convicted for a crime you didn't commit, or imagine your child's killer is still on the loose even though there's enough evidence for an arrest. I want to help shine light on the injustices of our judicial system. I delve into court documents, attend trials, and interview those close to the case to help me tell their stories.

    The Disappearance of Dru Sjodin

    The Disappearance of Dru Sjodin

    After 22-year-old Dru Sjodin disappeared from a mall parking lot in Grand Forks, North Dakota, a massive search began, ultimately leading investigators to a likely suspect. 
    NOTE: When referencing the search area in the episode, I misspeak and say “northwestern North Dakota and eastern Minnesota.” I should have said northeastern North Dakota and western Minnesota.
