The Halloween Murder of Ernestine Andregg

Halloween is usually a night where fear meets fun—a holiday for finding joy in the things that scare us. But Halloween night in 1995, the horrors became all too real in Rogers when 50-year-old Ernestine Andregg was stabbed to death in her own home. Thirty years later, police have yet to make an arrest. And while several suspects were developed in the aftermath of the killing, each was eventually dismissed. Who killed Ernestine Andregg? Why has the case never been solved?
