Minnesota Database

I have come across many cases over the past couple of years and have kept a list to keep track of every female victim I have found across Minnesota.

It’s my belief that we need a database of every homicide/disappearance to start connecting them and solve them. I want to share my list with the public incase it can help aid anyone in their own case or research.

It’s mostly homicides as The Charley Project has a very comprehensive missing persons database for Minnesota.

If you know someone on this list and don’t wish for them to be included or the case has since been solved – please email me at arentyouthegirlpod@gmail.com

I will be adding more cases as I continue my research.
