The True Crime Club

SHORT: Unidentified: Julie Doe

In September of 1988, a man discovered the body of a woman who was thought to be between the ages of 22-35. An autopsy was performed, confirming that she was in fact a woman, but were unable to provide the cause of death as she was too decomposed. She was unrecognizable, but a sketch was produced and shown around. With a lack of leads, quickly the case went cold. It wasn’t reopened until 2015 when issues with the techniques used to gather DNA at the time came to light. A reexamination of her case, and body revealed that their Jane Doe had in fact been born a male. Gender reassignment and hormone therapy were very rare at the time, which made this case even more peculiar. Not long after, the case was picked up by the DNA Doe Project, hoping to identify her through genetic testing. If you have any information on the case or identity of Julie Doe, you are encouraged to contact the Lake County Sheriff’s Office at 352-343-9529. ✩✩✩ Follow us on Instagram @thetruecrimeclub & follow our host Kaitlyn on Instagram @kait.lynlarson.

SHORT: Missing: Bennett Wall

In 1984, Joseph and Shirley Wall called the Albuquerque police department to report their son, Bennett Wall, missing. They hadn’t seen their 23 year old son in 3 years, and to this day he has yet to be found. Very little information can be found on Bennett Walls case. In 1988, a transgender doe was found near Orlando Florida. She was dubbed Julie Doe by those working on her case. Could these two cases be linked, or are they just two separate tragic stories? (Check back for our next episode that goes into detail on Julie Doe’s case.) If you have any information on Bennett Wall’s case, you can contact the Albuquerque Police Department at 505-768-2470. With information on Julie Doe’s case, you can contact the Lake County Sheriff’s Office at 352-343-9529. ✩✩✩ Follow us on Instagram @thetruecrimeclub & follow our host Kaitlyn on Instagram @kait.lynlarson.

1. Missing: Tracy Pickett

** NEW UPLOAD SCHEDULE** The True Crime Club has moved to Sundays! Check back every other Sunday for an episode by The True Crime Club. On August 11th, 1992, another summer day was in full swing for the Pickett girls and their mother, Kay. That warm day they took a trip to the grocery store to pick up a few things. While there, Tracy, the youngest of the Pickett sisters, ran into one of her friends who she hadn’t seen what felt like forever for the 14-year-old. The two giddy girls chatted amongst themselves for a while, eventually approaching Kay to ask if Tracy could spend the night at the other girl’s house. Tracy’s mother didn’t see how she could say no as the girls hadn’t seen each other in a while, and she figured that they couldn’t get into that much trouble since the other girl’s parents would be supervising them. The events of the night of August 11th and the following morning of the 12th are not reported on clearly, leaving a lot to speculation, but at some point the next morning around 10 am, Tracy left in a black van with someone who had been at the friend’s house that night. She was supposed to return to her home to retrieve a change of clothes and head back to the friend’s house. However, this isn’t what happened; after Tracy left that morning, she hasn’t been seen since, and to this day, 28 years later, what happened to Tracy has yet to be revealed. If you know anything regarding Tracy Pickett’s case, you are encouraged to contact the Joplin Police Department at 417-623-3131. WHERE CAN YOU FIND US?

M7: Murdered: Barbara Davis

On February 4th, 1980, 17-year-old Barbara Davis’s badly beaten body was found in the alley on South 19th Street in Milwaukee, WI. Barbara lived with friends and was last seen leaving a Nightclub on February 3rd around 10 pm. While her case went cold rather quickly, there was one promising lead. Officers had gathered reports that a vehicle with the description of “a late model red or maroon pontiac” was seen parked with its trunk open next to the area where her body was found, around the time it was believed her body was dumped there. If you have any information regarding Barbara Davis’s case, you can contact the Milwaukee police cold case hotline at 414-935-1212. THIS IS THE LAST EPISODE OF 2020!!
