17 OCT 2026 · Her disappearance launched a massive search, but Maria would not be found alive. Her remains were discovered nearly five months later in a wooded area in Jo Daviess County, roughly 100 miles from her hometown. For decades, the case remained unsolved. Then, 55 years after Maria vanished, investigators reopened the case. A former neighborhood resident, Jack McCullough — who had been known as John Tessier in 1957 — was eventually arrested and convicted in 2012 for Maria's kidnapping and murder. The case was widely described at the time as one of America's oldest cold cases to reach a conviction. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/criminal--6152643/support.
