Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss the murder of Joanne Burdick, the disturbing history of suspect Taylor Morris Teaford, and the decades-long search for answers. In October 2026, advances in investigative genetic genealogy finally gave the victim her name back: 16-year-old Joanne Yvonne Burdick. But while one mystery has been solved, another remains.
