FindJodi
Iowa television news anchor Jodi Huisentruit has been missing since June 27, 1995. The Long Prairie, Minnesota native is believed to have been abducted from the parking lot of her Mason City apartment complex between 4:00-4:30 on that early summer morning. She never showed up for work and has been missing ever since that day 25 years ago. FindJodi.com, Inc. was developed in 2003 when former Television News Director Gary Peterson and News Anchor Josh Benson worked together near Mason City. They saw an opportunity to work on one of the biggest missing person cases in the Midwest: the disappearance of Jodi Huisentruit. FindJodi.com is a not-for-profit effort which has grown into strong team of professionals in recent years. This is the official FindJodi.com podcast. Our mission is to raise awareness for Jodi's case in the hopes of one day finding answers for her family. Learn more about our efforts at https://findjodi.com
