## Resource

In 1972, 16-year-old Jeannette DePalma disappeared from her quiet suburban neighborhood in Springfield, New Jersey, and at first, no one treated it as a crisis. Known as a rebellious teenager with a complicated reputation, many believed she had simply run away. But as weeks passed with no word, that assumption began to unravel. In Part 1 of Murder: True Crime Stories, Carter Roy examines Jeannette’s life, the conflicting perceptions that shaped her story, and the early investigation that struggled to gain traction. When her remains were discovered weeks later in a nearby quarry under unsettling circumstances, the case took a darker turn and set the stage for a mystery that would only grow more complex.
