Rachel Anthony (5 of Spades, Minnesota)

AUDIOCHUCK
About this episode

Our card this week is Rachel Anthony, the 5 of Spades from Minnesota.

In 2001, 50-year-old Rachel was going about her nightly routine, closing the small-town liquor store, when she suddenly vanished without a trace, leaving behind no clues. A gruesome discovery 6 weeks later would answer some of the questions she left behind, but not the most pressing: who did it and why?

If you know anything about the murder of Rachel Anthony in February of 2001 — or if you were that last customer in Ultimate Liquors at 9:57 p.m. — please come forward. You can reach the Cass County Sheriff’s Office at (218) 547-1424 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477. You could be eligible for a $50,000 reward.
