November 18th, 1995.

Vicksburg, Mississippi.

62-year-old Jacqueline Levitz, the wealthy widowed heiress to a furniture empire, vanishes

from her home.

Her bedroom contains blood stains and signs of a violent struggle, making it likely that

Jacqueline met with foul play.

Numerous suspects would be investigated, including Jacqueline's son, her recently deceased

husband's family, and a mother-in-son con artist duo who would be convicted of the

murder of another wealthy missing woman years later.

However, no evidence connects anyone to the crime, and Jacqueline Levitz is never found.

After that, the trail went cold.

Hello everyone and welcome to the latest episode of The Trail, When Cold.

I'm your host Robin Warder, and today we will be covering another missing person's

case, the 1995 disappearance of Jacqueline Levitz.

As you probably know, we released our 100th episode last week, which covered the infamous

unsolved disappearance of millionaire Canadian theater tycoon Ambrose Small, whose wife

Teresa inherited his estate and was considered a potential suspect.

So this week, I'm going to cover a similar story from the modern era, only this time

it's about a woman who inherited a sizable fortune from her husband after he passed

away and then went missing several months later.

The case was originally suggested to me sometime last year by a listener named Tally, and

this seemed like an appropriate time to cover it, so thank you very much for the suggestion
