Listen Now: Stolen Voices of Dole Valley (00:22:04)
We’re excited to share a new podcast from KSL Podcasts & Lemonada Media: Stolen Voices of Dole Valley, a nine-part series about survival, injustice, and the fight for answers. It’s the story of a predator you’ve likely never heard of — one who prowled the Pacific Northwest in the 1970s, when hitchhiking was a rite of passage for many young people. Some young women managed to escape him, but their warnings were ignored. One survivor’s account was dismissed by police, leaving the man free to kidnap and murder others. Police believe this killer was responsible for far more than the two murders he was convicted of, and decades later, families and investigators are still determined to uncover the truth. With new DNA testing and relentless hope, loved ones are refusing to let their daughters and sisters be forgotten. After you listen to this preview, search for Stolen Voices of Dole Valley in your favorite podcast app to hear the rest of the series, or https://lemonada.lnk.to/StolenVoicesofDoleValleyfdSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
