Kathy Jones-Harmon (10 of Hearts, Utah)

AUDIOCHUCK
About this episode

Our card this week is Kathy Jones-Harmon, the 10 of Hearts from Utah.

Kathy was a 22-year-old newlywed living in Salt Lake City in 1976, forging her own path in a town that often seemed to value conformity over individuality. By all accounts Kathy had a reputation for being tough – definitely no shrinking violet. So no one was particularly worried about her fending for herself when her husband Dave left town on his rig for his most recent long-haul trek through the rugged Mountain West. And besides, Kathy had a solid group of friends to look out for her, including her roommate Vickie.

But Vickie couldn’t stay with Kathy 24/7 – and on the evening of March 2nd, when Kathy was left alone, something was set into motion that remains a mystery to this day.

If you know anything about the murder of Kathy Jones-Harmon in Salt Lake City, Utah in March of 1976, please call Unified Police Detective Ben Pender at 385-468-9816.
