Aren’t You the Girl?
I’m Amy Pierce. Aren’t You the Girl? is my true crime podcast based in Minnesota. It’s my mission to find every cold case or low profile case against young girls and women in my state specifically in the area I grew up in: Wright County. Each episode I’ll focus on a new area and different victims in hopes to revive some of the lowest priority cold cases across Minnesota into the digital world. Episode one starts my journey into researching cases and will tell the story of a suspected serial killer who was lurking in my backyard and the victims I’ve crossed investigating his spree. Cases will be told through family and friend interviews, police files, and archives to paint the most accurate picture of each victim possible. Join me as I uncover and tell the stories of the missing girls, the dead girls, and the silenced in Aren’t You the Girl? www.arentyouthegirl.com
