Show Notes
A college sophomore at St. John’s in Minnesota, Joshua vanished without a trace after attending a card game in November of 2002. Not a single shred of evidence has ever been recovered, however, plenty of signs point in a certain direction.
That direction? A religious community of monks who live and work on the college campus. A community home to 18-plus monks who have been accused and charged with sexual abuse since the 80s.
Plus an update on a decades-old cold case!

More from Murder in the Mourning
In August 1993, 38-year-old Jan Pattison vanished without a trace after leaving a friend’s cabin in the remote wilderness of Greenland, Michigan. Nearly a week later, her abandoned car was discovered along a secluded logging trail, with mysterious footprints leading away—but no sign of Jan.

A young woman visiting family in the northern town of Hibbing, Minnesota, spends the night out with friends and is never seen again. AND we highlight another solved cold case in the news! Let’s Mourn…
