EP250: The Murder of Jackie Johns

EP250: The Murder of Jackie Johns

On Tuesday, June 18, 1985, Jerry Estes was woken by pounding on the door of his office. After a busy Monday, he’d stayed late socializing and drinking beer after hours with some employees and fallen asleep at the Sale Barn, his cattle auction house and café in Nixa, Missouri. He opened the office door half-dressed. His cook, Alice, was standing before him talking excitedly, followed close behind by a distraught server, Dayna. After Alice took a deep breath and slowed down, Jerry found out that Alice and Dayna had spotted a black Camaro with the license plate “JACKI-1” abandoned on the side of Highway 160 with the driver’s side door open. He knew whose car this had to be. One of his servers at the Sale Barn Café, Jackie Johns, had purchased her “dream car” last year. The black, hard top, Camaro with red leather interior was her private world. Listen to this week's episode to hear more about what happened to Jackie Johns.
