The Girl in the Ditch: The Wilma June Nissen Story: Episode 2

In 2006, a fingerprint match gave Jane Doe a name: Wilma June Nissen. For nearly three decades, her identity was lost—but not anymore.In this episode, we uncover how Wilma was finally identified, follow her daughter Krissi’s journey advocating for her mother's case, and dig into the shadows cast by two mysterious women known only as “Sugar” and “Peaches.”We also confront the reality of what Wilma faced: how foster care, systemic neglect, and sex work created vulnerabilities—and how the language used to describe women like her has shaped the silence that followed.
