Susan J. Kersten
38 YOA
Iowa City, Iowa
September 24, 1995
Susan Kersten's body was found in a car that had been set on fire in a field south of the Regency Trailer Court in rural Iowa City, where she lived.
When Kersten's body was found in 1995, investigators didn't suspect she was murdered until an autopsy was performed several days later. While the case has been investigated actively for the past 13 years, no arrests have been made.
The family of Susan Kersten is offering a $7,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of her killer. Family and investigators encourage anyone with information to contact police, and those people who have already talked to investigators to get back in touch.
