Description: On the night of December 4, 1998, 21-year-old Yale senior Suzanne Jovin left her apartment to return a carpool key to the campus police office. She told a classmate she planned to go home afterward and get some rest. Just over 30 minutes later, Suzanne was found stabbed to death nearly two miles away on a street corner in a wealthy neighborhood. Detectives determined she could not have walked there in the time available, leading them to believe she had been driven to the location by someone she knew. Despite multiple investigative efforts, that person has never been identified and no one has ever been charged with Suzanne’s murder. More than 25 years later, her case remains unsolved, and the question still lingers: who killed Suzanne Jovin? **21-year-old Suzanne Jovin was last seen around 9:25 p.m. on December 4, 1998, walking near Phelps Gate on Yale’s campus in New Haven, Connecticut. Anyone with information about Suzanne’s case is asked to contact the Jovin Investigation Team Tip Line at 866-623-8058 or email jovin.case@ct.gov. There is a $150,000 reward available.** Editor: Shannon Keirce Research/Writing: Haley Gray SUBMIT A CASE HERE: Cases@DetectivePerspectivePod.com SOCIAL Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/detperspective/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/detperspective FIND DERRICK HERE Twitter: https://twitter.com/DerrickL Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/DerrickLevasseur Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DerrickVLevasseur CRIME WEEKLY AND COFFEE Criminal Coffee Company: https://www.CriminalCoffeeCo.com Crime Weekly:  https://crimeweeklypodcast.com/shop ADS: 1. https://www.TryFum.com - Use code DETECTIVE to get a FREE gift with your journey pack! 2. https://www.TryMiracle.com/Detective - Use code DETECTIVE for 3 FREE towels and to save over 40%!
