A new documentary has brought renewed attention to the decades-old disappearance of Iowa news anchor Jodi Huisentruit, suggesting that Brad Millerbernd, the ex-husband of her childhood friend Patty Niemeyer, may now be a key figure in the investigation. This development has reignited public interest in the 1995 case, which had long been considered cold and unsolved. The documentary, titled ‘Her Last Broadcast: The Abduction of Jodi Huisentruit,’ explores the mystery with fresh evidence and insights from those close to Huisentruit. Maria Awes, the documentary’s executive producer, described the case as a deeply moving and complex investigation, emphasizing the role of Niemeyer’s ex-husband in the ongoing search for answers. Niemeyer claimed that Millerbernd matches unreleased police suspect sketches and resided in proximity to Huisentruit’s apartment at the time of her disappearance. While Millerbernd has maintained his innocence throughout the investigation, the documentary underscores the bravery of Niemeyer in coming forward with her claims. Authorities have not confirmed whether they have investigated Millerbernd, and the case remains open, with police chief Jeff Brinkley expressing hope that new information could provide closure for the family and community. Huisentruit’s disappearance has remained a poignant mystery for her loved ones, who continue to search for justice and resolution after three decades. Despite numerous dead ends, the family remains hopeful that their daughter will one day be found, with a statement from Huisentruit’s family expressing their unwavering belief in the possibility of closure. The documentary serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring impact of cold cases, highlighting the importance of vigilance and the value of new evidence in advancing long-standing investigations.
