Episode 46: Elena ”Helen” Popa - Murdered (1979)

On New Year’s Eve 1979, while many partied together to ring in 1980, Mrs. Helen Popa was at home when at least one assailant entered her house and beat her, causing her to die from the blunt force trauma she endured. Now, 42 years later, and thanks to the dedication of one specific trooper, this cold case is closer to a solution than it’s ever been before. Who killed Helen Popa on that winter night so many years ago and when will they finally be captured? Sources and photos are available at kccpod.com
