Sioux City’s Unsolved Crimes with Sarah Enright

True crime podcasts, documentaries, TV series, and books have been a growing obsession for many over the last several years. Sioux City is no stranger to the true crime world and has an ominous history of its own, specifically regarding unsolved cases.

In 1917, a 23-year-old woman was mysteriously slain on the corner of 9th and Jones Streets upon returning from an evening stroll downtown just minutes after parting from her companion. The perpetrator was never found, and her murder has never been solved.

Sarah Enright, Local History Librarian Specialist at the Sioux City Public Library, will examine this and other unique cold cases. Using the library’s archived newspaper clippings, microfilm, and web resources, Sarah will present facts about the crimes, theories, and law enforcement efforts throughout the years following. She will encourage attendees to share memories, input, and theories as the cases are discussed.
