In this new episode, Crawlspace Media's Tim Pilleri and Lance Reenstierna discuss the mysterious disappearance of Joan Risch from Lincoln, Massachusetts on October 24th, 1961.
On October 24, 1961, 31-year-old Joan Risch vanished from her home in Lincoln, Massachusetts, leaving behind her unattended young children and bloodstains inside the kitchen. Despite eyewitness sightings of a disoriented woman walking along local highways later that afternoon, no trace of her has ever been found, leaving her case open to theories ranging from abduction to a staged voluntary disappearance.
If you have any information regarding this case, please contact the Massachusetts State Police - Middlesex County District Attorney's Office at (781) 897-6600 regarding case number 61-2623.
