This week we discuss the Villisca Ax Murders in Villisca, Iowa. This took place June 9, 10 in 1912. The victims were the Moore family Josiah (Dad), Sarah (Mom) and their four children Herman (11), Mary (10), Arthur (7) and Paul (5) along with two girls that were friends of the family, Ina Stillinger (8), and Gertrude Stillinger (12). It is an extremely sad case that has gone unsolved for over a hundred years.
Next, we discuss Sara Burton who has been missing from the Joplin, MO. area since 2018. Her missing person case is still ongoing as well.
What we ask in these unsolved cases, is there is someone, somewhere, that knows something. Please reach out with any information you may have, so these families may have the answers that they so desperately need.
