On June 27, it will be 30 years since 27-year-old Jodi Huisentruit disappeared without a trace on her way to anchor the morning news at KIMT-TV in Mason City, Iowa. Mason City is a city in the northern part of the state with a population of about 29,000, located about half an hour south of the Iowa/Minnesota state line.
For nearly thirty years, Jodi’s family and friends have been left with no answers or accountability for her abduction. It happened outside her car, just 30 seconds after Jodi left her second floor apartment. Jodi’s red Mazda Miata was parked barely twelve steps from the Key Apartment building, a five-minute drive to the television station.
FindJodi, Inc. was co-founded in 2003 by Josh Benson and Gary Peterson. Our non-profit team remains committed to keeping Jodi’s case from fading from the public eye, and we will continue our search for what happened to the promising young news anchor from Long Prairie, Minnesota.
Among our continuing efforts to help solve the case, we have put up billboards in Mason City and have produced thirty-five FindJodi podcasts....
