Buttons Done, Shoes Swapped: Who Hid Judith West in the River?
-
Lu par :

De :
A body tangled in a trotline, shoes on the wrong feet, and every button fastened - the scene on May 14, 1923, looked deliberate yet strangely careless. Why would someone carefully button a blouse but leave shoes mismatched, and who used a seven-foot unnumbered corridor between 612 and 616 Carver Street to move a woman nobody had reported missing?
In this episode, we tell the sequence of events from Judith West's daily routines to the morning her body surfaced in the Carver River, and how a handwritten note overlooked by the coroner later changed the course of the inquiry. What hidden detail in Constable Pruitt's notes redirected investigators weeks after the coroner's typed summary?
Person: Judith West
Date: May 14, 1923
Location: Carver River, quarter-mile below the rail bridge
Occupation: Bookkeeper at Meridian Pressing
Residence: Upstairs room at 44 Walnut Street, Hollenbeck, Ohio
- The body was found at 7:00 AM tangled in a fisherman's cotton trotline wrapped twice around the left wrist.
- Judith West was 31 years old and had lived in Hollenbeck for six years.
- She worked at Meridian Pressing at 612 Carver Street and unlocked the side office door before Vincent Greer arrived.
- Last confirmed sighting was May 10 at approximately 5:00 PM, leaving Falk's Lunch Counter heading south on Carver.
- A seven-foot unlit corridor between 612 and 616 Carver Street had no official address after a 1918 municipal renumbering skipped 614.
