Jodi Huisentruit's name has appeared in local media quite a bit lately, mostly due to the research of consultant Steve Ridge.

In this update episode, Steve joins me to discuss his newly public work on the Jodi case and topics ranging from a video taken of Jodi the weekend before she vanished, to the drug scene in Iowa at the time.

(Here is the mentioned article Gary Peterson wrote in 2008 about Billy Pruin's death: https://www.findjodi.com/death-case-possibly-connected-to-the-huisentruit-case/ )

Stay listening through the end of the episode for a preview of an excellent new podcast from Wondery and the L.A. Times, "Detective Trapp"

Anaheim investigator Julissa Trapp is not like other detectives. She’s the only woman on the homicide squad, and a skilled chameleon: undercover cop in vice stings, crime-scene commander, patient confidante of killers. A master interrogator, she invokes her personal experience – and deepest griefs -- as a tool to elicit confessions. When a young woman’s body is found at a trash-sorting plant, Trapp learns the murder may be linked to the disappearance of three other women in nearby Santa Ana. Trapp embarks on a dark journey that brings her face to face with a man who takes “a little piece of her soul.”
