‘Who Killed Kelly?’ podcast series launches on The Vault

The Vault podcast reveals new details from a 1,300-page police file and shares the family’s ongoing efforts to solve Kelly Robinson’s 1984 murder after nearly 40 years.

  • The Vault podcast is available on all major podcast platforms and explores Robinson's 1984 cold case, including an interview with a person involved in the investigation.
  • Earlier this year, Jean Monthei found a Forum News Service story, prompting the family and Jeff Lucas to request the investigative file from the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, long ago.
  • The investigative file shows more than 1,300 pages including a semen sample obtained at autopsy, and autopsy findings indicate Robinson was held down in water by her neck and shoulders.
  • Investigators say they know who likely killed Kelly Jean Robinson but lack enough evidence to charge anyone, while Kelly Jean Robinson's family calls the case heartbreaking and remains hopeful.
  • Despite the passage of roughly 40 years, Kelly Robinson, 22 at time of death, was last seen two days before her body was found near Luverne; her family says her multiple sclerosis hindered mobility and her blue Pro Wing tennis shoes were found piled in grass.
