Summary
37 year-old Karen Bodine's lifeless body was found discarded along a Rochester, WA highway in January, 2007. The mother of 3 had wrestled with drugs for much of her life, and her family feels that because of this, her case didn't get much press coverage. But her case has not been forgotten! Over a decade later, Karen's case is getting a new look from a bunch of fresh eyes. In October, 2019, Seattle will host a Crimecon Crowd Solve event in which hundreds of citizen detectives will work side by side with investigators in an attempt to make progress in, or solve Karen's case. In this episode, you'll hear more about that Crowd Solve event, as well as hear from Karen's mom, Sharron, and Crimecon organizer Kevin Balfe.
If you have information about Karen Bodine's murder, please call the Olympia Thurston County Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS
