In 2021, we set out to cover the case of Rhys Pocan, a 35-year-old Indigenous woman who was murdered in Wisconsin in the ‘80s. But while we were in the field, we uncovered a disturbing pattern of murders with similarities to Rhys’ that were just too blatant to ignore. So, we spent the next three years working with local and federal law enforcement to try and get to the bottom of it.Before you listen, make sure you’ve listened to <a href="https://crimejunkiepodcast.com/wanted-justice-for-rhys-pocan-mmiw-part-1">WANTED: Justice for Rhys Pocan &amp; MMIW Part 1</a>!In Part 2, we look into cases of two other female dismemberment victims in Wisconsin with striking similarities to Rhys Pocan’s. Rhys’ own cousin Rae Tourtillot’s remains were found just two years before Rhys’ disappearance. And Julia Baez’s remains were found buried in plastic bags the year after. But without a statewide task force, investigators are slow to put things together.If you have any information about any of the cases below, please contact Det. Nathan Hatch at the Sheboygan County Sheriff’s Office at 920-459-3135, or email him at <a href="mailto:nathan.hatch@sheboygancounty.com">nathan.hatch@sheboygancounty.com</a>.
