A scorched canyon. A woman without a name. And a decades-old mystery that still haunts Nevada’s high desert.
In this gripping installment of Dark Dialogue: Rocky Mountain Reckoning, hosts John and Angela investigate the tragic and unresolved case of Devil’s Gate Jane Doe—a young woman found murdered and partially burned in a remote canyon near Elko, Nevada, in 1978. She had no ID, no missing persons report to match, and no justice.
Could she have been a hitchhiker? A local runaway? A forgotten victim of a serial killer operating in the shadows of the Great Basin?
We retrace the evidence, decode the forensic findings, explore criminal patterns across the region—and above all, honor the memory of the woman we now call Clara.
