Crossroads and Canyons: The Devil’s Gate Mystery

A scorched canyon. A woman without a name. And a decades-old mystery that still haunts Nevada’s high desert. In this gripping installment of Dark Dialogue: Rocky Mountain Reckoning, hosts John and Angela investigate the tragic and unresolved case of Devil’s Gate Jane Doe—a young woman found murdered and partially burned in a remote canyon near Elko, Nevada, in 1978. She had no ID, no missing persons report to match, and no justice. Could she have been a hitchhiker? A local runaway? A forgotten victim of a serial killer operating in the shadows of the Great Basin? We retrace the evidence, decode the forensic findings, explore criminal patterns across the region—and above all, honor the memory of the woman we now call Clara. 🎯 Support the Show & Help Bring Clara Home: 💜 Join the Adopt-a-Victim Program ➡️ Take action and explore cold cases at darkdialogue.com/adopt ☕ Buy Us a Coffee ➡️ Support our independent investigations at ko-fi.com/darkdialogue 🎧 Subscribe for Bonus Content ➡️ Get early episodes and behind-the-scenes access on Patreon 📰 Sign Up for The Dark Dispatch ➡️ Stay updated with our newsletter via Substack 📬 Send Tips, Case Suggestions, or Kudos ➡️ Email: info@darkdialogue.com 🔊 Follow, share, and review Dark Dialogue on your favorite podcast platform to help us keep the dialogue alive—and keep these cases from being forgotten.
