Jodi Huisentruit docuseries
What happened to Jodi Huisentruit still remains a mystery to date. The 27-year-old from Long Prairie, Minnestosa, was a morning anchor at KIMT-TV, serving north central Iowa and southeastern Minnesota. Everyday, Jodi Huisentruit was up before dawn every day for Daybreak at 6 am and she aspired to go global.On June 27, 1995, DayBreak producer Amy Kuns called Huisentruit at home shortly after 4 am to see why she wasn't at work yet, as she was usually there closer to 3 am."I called her twice. I talked to her and woke her up that first time," Kuns remembered in a 2011 interview. "The second time, it just rang and rang. I don't remember the times. I had obviously woken her up. She asked what time it was. I told her. She said she'd be right in." She never made it to work.At her apartment, police found signs of a struggle, including a bent key outside her car. Her disappearance was quickly ruled an abduction and over the last three decades, authorities have been unable to find her or recover her remains.Jodi Huisentruit didn't obviously disappear into thin air. Jodi was declared dead on May 14, 2001, but, to this day, no body or any other physical trace of her has ever been found.The search warrant sheds light that investigators placed a GPS tracker on a friend's car in 1999 and on the friend's pickup truck in 2013, according to CBS News. But the friend is yet to be charged with a crime and had been with the local TV news anchor the night before she vanished.Investigators also caught a break in 2022, when an ABC 20/20 episode on Huisentruit's disappearance led a witness to reach out to the Mason City Police Department and share information she kept secret for more than two decades, as the network highlights in the new trailer for its docuseries.Thirty years after Jodi Huisentruit 'disappeared', a new three-part documentary on her disappearance is set to debut this week, reports Fox 9. " Her Last Broadcast : The Abduction of Jodi Huisentruit" is a new documentary on the disappearance of the Iowa news anchor, which will also take a look at the case, including a new tip that led authorities to search a property in Minnesota last year.The Jodi Huisentruit documentary is being produced by ABC News Studios. The new series, 'Her Last Broadcast: The Abduction of Jodi Huisentruit', includes more than 20 new interviews with family members, detectives, witnesses and friends of Jodi Huisentruit. ABC News Studios in a press release said the series also promises "never-before-seen material and new, groundbreaking information" about the case."An exploration of the power of persistence, public memory, and journalism, Her Last Broadcast: The Abduction of Jodi Huisentruit breathes new life into one of the country's most haunting unsolved mysteries," the network says. "Her Last Broadcast: The Abduction of Jodi Huisentruit" will debut on Hulu on Tuesday, July 15.On the 30th anniversary of Huisentruit's disappearance in late June, an online group dedicated to finding the truth about what happened to the television news anchor shared a statement demanding the person responsible come forward and explain what happened."[Thirty] years. It's time,' the group Find Jodi said, according to CBS. 'Don't make Jodi Huisentruit's family and friends wait another year for you to come forward. They need answers and justice.'
