Show Notes
On a freezing winter morning in 1985, Yvonne Menke stepped out of her apartment to start her car — and never came back. Shot once in the neck and twice in the head, the 45-year-old mother was executed just metres from her front door. For decades, police had a description of the killer but no name. That all changed in 2024 with the arrest of Mary Jo Bailey, a woman allegedly entangled in a bitter love triangle with Yvonne and local man Jack Owen. In this Crime at Bedtime episode, we unravel the twists of this long-unsolved murder: the eyewitness account, the motive hiding in plain sight, and the forensic trail that brought police to Bailey's door nearly 40 years later.
