The End of the Driveway: Who Killed Linda Weldy?

In 1987, 10-year-old Linda Weldy got off her school bus in rural Indiana and vanished. Her body was found just a few miles from her home. Her murder remains unsolved nearly four decades later.

But Linda’s story is more than a cold case—it’s a reflection of the cracks in small-town systems, where children fall through and justice stalls. In this episode, we revisit Linda’s case and examine how communities respond to the disappearance and death of a child.

Content note: This episode discusses the murder of a child and may not be suitable for all listeners.
