Jodi Jones

Jodi Jones

By Skinwalker True Crime

On June 30th, 2004, Jodi Jones returned home to find out she was no longer grounded for a small argument she had with her mother, Judith, over her cannabis use. She informed her mother, in that case, that she was going to see her boyfriend Luke Mitchell in the next town over. Jodi was never seen alive by her family again.Credits:Primary Audio recorded by JSResearch by JSScripting by Matt KBackground Audio courtesy of Epidemic Sound (epidemicsound.com)SponsorsHuge thanks to Podcorn for sponsoring this episode.

At Skinwalker, we do not have access to spokespeople from any of these campaigns and our initial emails received no reply. Should any party wish to have the right to reply, we would happily do a follow-up episode or discussion podcast with any points of interest, or probative evidence, should it be provided.
