A recent episode of ABC’s 20/20, titled “Her Last Note,” uncovers the harrowing murder of Jessie Blodgett, a gifted 19-year-old musician whose life was tragically cut short in her hometown of Hartford, Wisconsin. Jessie was discovered strangled in her bed, sending shockwaves through the close-knit community.
Initially, investigators narrowed their focus to individuals connected to Jessie, including a man noted in her diary just hours prior to her death. However, this lead soon proved unfruitful. The case took a dramatic turn when police were alerted to a knife attack on a young woman in a nearby town. Crucially, evidence from this attack revealed a connection between both crimes, suggesting that the same perpetrator was responsible.
Correspondent Stephanie Ramos delves into this gripping case in the 20/20 episode airing Friday, January 23, from 9:00 to 11:00 p.m. EDT, which will also be available for streaming the following day on Hulu and Disney+. This episode not only highlights the shocking turn of events in Jessie’s murder but also underscores the importance of community and investigative diligence in solving crimes.
In related news, ABC continues to engage viewers with a variety of programming, including the upcoming trailer for The Muppet Show and the anticipated new Star Wars documentary focusing on Darth Maul’s story. Additionally, Hulu has revealed a trailer for the new season of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, slated for release in March, showcasing a diverse range of content aimed at captivating audiences.
