Show Notes

In honor of Black History Month, we’re revisiting the story of Alberta Jones — Louisville’s first Black woman prosecutor and a civil rights trailblazer. On August 4, 1965, Alberta left her home after a late-night phone call. Hours later, her body was found floating in the Ohio River. The investigation was marked by conflicting timelines, missing evidence, and suspects who were never charged. Decades later, police claimed they knew who was responsible — but said they couldn’t prosecute.

Sixty years later, Alberta Jones’ murder remains unsolved.

Her story deserves to be remembered.
