Talking Dateline: The Girl with the Hibiscus Tattoo

Andrea Canning interviews Keith Morrison about his latest episode, “The Girl with the Hibiscus Tattoo,” based on his original podcast “Murder in the Hollywood Hills.” 21-year-old Kristi Johnson mysteriously disappeared in 2003 after meeting a man at the Century City Mall in Los Angeles who invited her to audition for a Bond movie.  She was found dead days later. Keith talks about the group of women who helped bring Kristi’s killer to justice and shares a clip from his 2023 interview with Kristi’s mother, Terry Hall. Susan Leibowitz, one of the producers of the episode, answers viewer and listener questions.
