Steve Pankey

About this episode

Steve Pankey was a husband, father, car salesman, and Idaho gubernatorial candidate. He was recently convicted of murdering 12-year-old Jonelle Matthews, bringing closure to a case that had been cold for decades. 

Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss Steve Pankey and the murder of Jonelle Matthews. Jonelle went missing in December of 1984 after arriving at her Colorado home. When her parents got home, they became frantic, and a massive search ensued, but the case went cold. Jonelle's remains weren't found until 2019. Steve Pankey had been a person of interest for years and made several incriminating statements. But would the evidence against him be enough for a conviction?
