After 11 Years Missing Iowa News Anchor Jodi Huisentruit Remains May have been Found

Jodi Huisentruit, the missing news anchor almost 11 years from CBS affiliate KIMT in Mason City, Iowa may have finally been found. The suspicions of an Iowa farmer, Duane Arnold, may lead to the discovery of Jodi Huisentruit’s remains.

Police have wondered what happened to Jodi Huisentruit, who worked for CBS affiliate KIMT in Mason City, Iowa, since she did not show up for work on June 27, 1995. They have pursued several leads, but a breakthrough in the investigation has been elusive.

They hope an Iowa farmer will be able to give them new clues in the search. Duane Arnold owns a cabin near Eagle Lake, Iowa, and 10 years ago, he said, he reported seeing what he believed was a grave near his cabin. Investigators found nothing, but Arnold remained convinced they had dug in the wrong area.

“I really, truly believe she’s right there somewhere,” Arnold said. “I gotta know. I gotta know. It’s just eating me up, lost a lot of sleep. You can’t get it out of your mind.” (ABC News)

This past April, Duane Arnold paid an engineering firm with ground penetrating radar to survey the land around his cabin.

Using radar, the firm said that it had found something that could be a body. Jared Lampe, spokesman for National Ground Penetrating Radar Services Inc., said the area looked like a grave site.

For those not completely familiar with this nearly 11 year old case. It is believed that Jodi Huisentruit was was abducted from the parking lot of her apartment complex in the Key Apartments about 4:30 a.m. on June 27th, 1995. She has never been found.
