Episode 154: The Tragic Murder of Krystal Beslanowitch

Send us Fan MailKrystal Lynn Beslanowitch was a 17-year-old who had moved from Spokane, Washington, to Utah in hopes of starting fresh. On December 15, 1995, her body was discovered along the Provo River near Midway, Utah. She had been brutally beaten to death with large rocks, which were found bloodstained nearby.The case went cold for nearly two decades, despite investigators collecting DNA from the rocks at the scene. In 2013, advances in forensic technology allowed police to recover a partial DNA profile from the rocks, which was then matched to Joseph Michael Simpson, a former Utah resident who had since moved to Florida. Simpson, who had a criminal history, was extradited to Utah and charged with Krystal’s murder.In 2016, Simpson was convicted and sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole, finally bringing closure to a case that had haunted investigators for 18 years.Support the showThanks for all the support!!
