Lisa Holstead Part 1 of 2

Episode 81 Lisa Holstead Part 1 of 2 Lisa Holstead vanished sometime between 2:30 and 3:30 a.m. on the night of August 12th-13th, 1986.  Her boyfriend told the police Lisa had jumped out of his car after an argument, and he never saw her again. Police were skeptical of this story, even after two witnesses said they saw Lisa getting out of the vehicle at a stop light.  Lisa was found the next day in a nearby marsh.  She'd been strangled by her own braided hair.  Her boyfriend became the target of the family's suspicions and the police investigation for years to come.  Not until forensic genealogy pointed modern investigators in another direction altogether was Lisa's case finally cracked, and her real killer brought to justice.   To listen to every episode of DNA: ID ad-free and get other benefits, simply  visit our channel page on Apple Podcasts to get started with an AbJack Insider subscription.
