On December 4th, 1998, 21-year-old Yale student, Suzanne Jovin spent the evening hosting an event for the volunteer organization, Best Buddies. Following this event, Suzanne returned a vehicle she had borrowed from Yale for the event, but when she realized that she had forgotten to return the keys with the vehicle, she set out to return them. She may have also been planning to meet up with someone she had lent study materials to. Tragically, around 10PM that night, Suzanne’s body was found, stabbed 17 times, and had her throat cut. Investigators chased leads, but tragically, Suzanne’s case remains unsolved as of Nov 2025.
If you have information about Suzanne’s murder, please contact the Jovin investigation Team at 1-866-623-8058 or [email protected].
