Joanie Hall: The Oregon Coast's Great Mystery

On September 30th, 1983 Joan Leigh "Joanie" Hall had her day planned out. She was to go to the Warrenton Grade School after classes at the high school to help her Aunt Ruth grade papers and help tutor. However, she never made it to the school. She had last been seen at the Warrenton Mini Mart making a purchase, while catching a ride with a fellow student who has remained a person of interest in this case. But is there more to the story than just that? Could some of the details in this case cause the case to not be prosecuted in the future? And will Joanie ever be found?

Jason is joined by Gwen Barringer of "A Light For Ericka" and Jessi Veltstra of Trans Doe Task Force as they breakdown the Joanie Hall from beginning to end.
