Episode 205: The Mysterious Death of Kenneka Jenkins

Apr 27

Kenneka Jenkins was a 19-year-old nursing student from Chicago, Illinois who was found deceased in September of 2017 inside a latched freezer in the Crowne Plaza hotel in Rosemont, Illinois, where she attended a party with some friends.

The medical examiner's report found her death to be accidental and the Rosemont police department does not suspect foul play, but the Jenkins' family and Keneeka's friends criticize this theory and believe she was murdered.
