The Isdal Woman: Death in Ice Valley Part One – EP 160
http://www.patreon.com/theconspiracypodcast
In November 1970, a father and his two young daughters were hiking through a remote Norwegian ravine that locals had nicknamed “Death Valley” when they stumbled onto a nightmare: the burned, unrecognizable body of a woman, surrounded by personal items with every label, tag, and maker’s mark deliberately removed. What followed became one of the strangest unsolved cases in modern European history.
Investigators would eventually uncover a woman who had crossed the continent under at least eight false identities, checking into hotel after hotel under invented names and fabricated Belgian hometowns, always paying cash, always wiping her own fingerprints from glasses. Hidden inside the lining of her suitcase: Deutsche Marks, disguises, and a coded notepad no one could read.
Norwegian police closed the case within months. No one has ever solved it.
Sean, Jorge, and Eric dig into the gruesome discovery, the disturbing autopsy findings, the tangled web of hotel aliases stretching across the continent, and the eyewitnesses who came forward decades later after being told, at the time, to simply forget what they’d seen. It’s the foundation of one of the most bizarre disappearances of the Cold War era — and the mystery is only just getting started.
Who was the Isdal Woman?
Part Two drops next Tuesday.
