Minne-Sode #7: Katie Poirier

On this week’s Minne-sode, Ame shares the case of the murder of 19-year-old Katie Poirier of Moose Lake, MN. Katie was working at a gas station in her small town late at night when a man comes in and forces her out of the store. Video surveillance shows her grabbing at her throat which makes police think she may have had something tied around her neck. The video was clear enough to give a decent description of the suspect including what he’d been wearing. An eye witness saw a vehicle and was even able to give a partial plate to investigators. Very soon, a man by the name of Donald Blom is identified and his very dark past is arrested while driving home from a camping trip and his property is searched for human remains, but a fire pit on the property did reveal a human tooth and bone fragments. Shortly after, he confesses to abducting Katie, strangling her, and burning her body on his property.
