211. “Our Girl” - The Case of Wilma June Nissen - Lyon County, Iowa
Manage episode 488234911 series 3343505
A single fingerprint, a daughter’s search, and “Sugar”.
In October of 1978 a telephone crew working in Rock Rapids, Iowa discovered the body of an unidentified young woman.
Twenty-seven years after her murder, a single fingerprint led to her identification. She was 23-year-old Wilma June Nissen.
Just before her death, Wilma had abruptly moved to Atlanta, Georgia, so how had she ended up murdered in Iowa?
