Kern County Jane Doe

The Ties That Find

Show Notes

In the summer of 1980, two Jane Does were found, murdered 4 days and over 100 miles apart. It would take 38 years to convict the man that killed them, and 41 years to give one of them their names back. This is the 1980 case of the Kern County Jane Jane Doe.
