1
00:00:01.800 --> 00:00:07.120
In nineteen seventy, a brilliant college student vanished into the night.
2
00:00:08.080 --> 00:00:11.359
Nine days later, her body was found in a rural
3
00:00:11.400 --> 00:00:17.640
Illinois cornfield, fully clothed, shoeless, and with six pounds of
4
00:00:17.679 --> 00:00:21.719
potatoes in her stomach. Was it a crime of passion,
5
00:00:22.039 --> 00:00:27.239
a bizarre ritual or a killer covering their tracks?
6
00:00:28.640 --> 00:00:34.920
What you were about to beat Eastbury to be based
7
00:00:35.159 --> 00:00:44.880
on witness accounts, testimonies, and public record, this is terrifying
8
00:00:45.240 --> 00:00:47.799
and true.
9
00:00:53.799 --> 00:00:59.439
To call the Illinois. October nineteen seventy, a quiet college
10
00:00:59.479 --> 00:01:03.679
town is shaken when a young woman disappears after her
11
00:01:03.759 --> 00:01:08.920
library shift. Nine days later, her body is discovered in
12
00:01:08.959 --> 00:01:14.560
a cornfield, dressed in someone else's coat, her shoes missing,
13
00:01:15.200 --> 00:01:20.599
and her stomach filled with six pounds of boiled potatoes.
14
00:01:21.760 --> 00:01:26.680
Who killed Donna Doll? And why was it a jealous lover,
15
00:01:27.480 --> 00:01:33.599
a calculated abduction, or a crime staged to confuse investigators?
16
00:01:34.280 --> 00:01:38.840
Tonight we explore one of the most baffling unsolved murders
17
00:01:38.879 --> 00:01:43.920
in Illinois history, the strange case of Donna Doll. Right
18
00:01:43.959 --> 00:02:00.000
after this, on a chilly October evening in nineteen seven,
19
00:02:00.959 --> 00:02:06.799
darkness enveloped the cornfields just west of northern Illinois University.
20
00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:11.800
Three teenagers en route to a party on October eleventh
21
00:02:12.199 --> 00:02:16.280
pulled off along Nelson Road to retrieve a stash of
22
00:02:16.400 --> 00:02:21.280
beer they had hidden the week before. As one of
23
00:02:21.319 --> 00:02:25.439
them walked through the tall grass at dusk, he stumbled
24
00:02:25.520 --> 00:02:31.199
upon a horrifying sight, the partially decomposed body of a
25
00:02:31.240 --> 00:02:35.759
young woman lying on her back in a ditch beneath
26
00:02:35.759 --> 00:02:41.280
a tree. Startled and terrified, the teens raced to the
27
00:02:41.319 --> 00:02:46.560
Decal police station to report what they had found. When
28
00:02:46.599 --> 00:02:51.039
officers returned to the remote roadside with them, the grim
29
00:02:51.080 --> 00:02:57.639
discovery was confirmed. The dead woman was fully clothed, though
30
00:02:57.719 --> 00:03:02.479
her shoes were missing, and strangely, she was wearing a
31
00:03:02.520 --> 00:03:07.400
blue jacket that did not belong to her. By early
32
00:03:07.520 --> 00:03:11.960
the next morning, police had identified the victim as twenty
33
00:03:12.039 --> 00:03:17.759
one year old Donna Susan Dahl, a Northern Illinois University
34
00:03:17.879 --> 00:03:23.000
senior who had vanished without a trace nine days earlier.
35
00:03:24.120 --> 00:03:29.120
Donna Doll's death sent shockwaves through the quiet college town
36
00:03:29.199 --> 00:03:34.000
of Decal, Illinois. A week earlier, life on campus had
37
00:03:34.039 --> 00:03:40.719
seemed safe and routine. Donna was an honors student from Brookfield,
38
00:03:40.759 --> 00:03:46.280
Illinois studying Russian at an IU with dreams of becoming
39
00:03:46.319 --> 00:03:52.319
a teacher. Described by friends as smart, kind, and a
40
00:03:52.360 --> 00:03:58.919
bit sheltered, she had been never wild, unworldly, and innocent,
41
00:04:00.080 --> 00:04:05.000
according to her childhood friend, Donna Cherralot. In high school,
42
00:04:05.240 --> 00:04:10.599
Donna had juggled heavy responsibilities at home, often babysitting her
43
00:04:10.639 --> 00:04:16.079
younger siblings and tending to household chores, but college gave
44
00:04:16.120 --> 00:04:21.160
her new found independence. She earned a scholarship to NIU
45
00:04:21.800 --> 00:04:27.000
and spent summers in intensive language programs, even earning graduate
46
00:04:27.120 --> 00:04:32.720
credits at Middlebury College in nineteen sixty nine and nineteen seventy.
47
00:04:34.000 --> 00:04:37.399
By the fall of nineteen seventy, the diligent student was
48
00:04:37.439 --> 00:04:42.399
starting her senior year, working part time evenings at NIU's
49
00:04:42.680 --> 00:04:47.279
Sween Parson Library and living in an off campus rooming
50
00:04:47.319 --> 00:04:52.720
house on West Lincoln Highway. For the first time, Donna
51
00:04:52.839 --> 00:04:57.120
also had time for a social life. She was dating
52
00:04:57.399 --> 00:05:01.319
and staying in touch with her friends, like Cheery, who
53
00:05:01.319 --> 00:05:07.360
had recently gotten married. On Friday, October second, nineteen seventy,
54
00:05:07.959 --> 00:05:11.839
the night she disappeared, Donna had plans to meet Schar
55
00:05:11.920 --> 00:05:15.600
a Loot after her library shift for a chat and
56
00:05:15.759 --> 00:05:19.800
some coffee. It was to be the two friends first
57
00:05:19.879 --> 00:05:23.800
ketchup of the new semester, since Donna had spent the
58
00:05:23.839 --> 00:05:28.519
summer in Pennsylvania and cher Alot had been busy settling
59
00:05:28.560 --> 00:05:33.199
in to newlywed life. That evening, Donna clocked out of
60
00:05:33.240 --> 00:05:37.959
the campus library at nine fifty nine p m. Cher
61
00:05:38.000 --> 00:05:41.439
a Lot pulled up to the library shortly after and
62
00:05:41.600 --> 00:05:48.480
waited about twenty minutes, but Donna never emerged. Thinking she
63
00:05:48.600 --> 00:05:51.639
might have forgotten their meet up or been held up
64
00:05:51.680 --> 00:05:57.360
by something unexpected, cher Alt eventually left, assuming they would
65
00:05:57.439 --> 00:06:05.120
reconnect later. Unbeknownst to her, Donna Doll had already vanished
66
00:06:05.720 --> 00:06:10.639
into the night. When Donna failed to return home that
67
00:06:10.800 --> 00:06:16.560
Friday night, her three roommates initially weren't alarmed. They assumed
68
00:06:16.680 --> 00:06:21.199
Donna might have spontaneously gone out of town for the weekend,
69
00:06:22.000 --> 00:06:26.000
perhaps to visit the new boyfriend she'd mentioned from Pennsylvania.
70
00:06:27.480 --> 00:06:31.319
Over the summer, while studying at a language program in Pennsylvania,
71
00:06:31.800 --> 00:06:35.399
Donna had met an older man from Pittsburgh who had
72
00:06:35.439 --> 00:06:40.399
recently separated from his wife. She had confided in chier
73
00:06:40.439 --> 00:06:43.800
a Lot in letters that she intended to break up
74
00:06:43.839 --> 00:06:49.160
with her current boyfriend, Charles Burke to pursue this new romance.
75
00:06:50.000 --> 00:06:53.560
In fact, the Pittsburgh man was planning to visit her
76
00:06:53.639 --> 00:06:59.519
at NIU over Halloween, a detail Donna seemed excited about.
77
00:07:00.639 --> 00:07:05.199
Given Donna's strict parents and the delicate situation of the
78
00:07:05.240 --> 00:07:11.040
man only newly separated, Donna likely kept this relationship low key.
79
00:07:12.079 --> 00:07:15.639
It wasn't unthinkable to her roommates or even the police
80
00:07:16.319 --> 00:07:20.279
that Donna might have slipped away for a secret weekend
81
00:07:20.360 --> 00:07:24.800
trip to see him, especially if she feared her family's
82
00:07:24.879 --> 00:07:31.319
disapproval of an unchaperoned visit. After all, this was nineteen seventy,
83
00:07:32.079 --> 00:07:37.160
a time without cell phones or instant communication, when college
84
00:07:37.199 --> 00:07:42.360
students often came and went without notice. Maybe Donna just
85
00:07:42.480 --> 00:07:46.959
needed a couple of days for herself, some thought. But
86
00:07:47.079 --> 00:07:50.560
as the weekend went on with no sign of Donna,
87
00:07:51.240 --> 00:07:58.600
those closest to her grew increasingly uneasy. By Sunday, October fourth,
88
00:07:59.279 --> 00:08:05.839
Donna still hadn't returned or contacted anyone. Her roommates discovered
89
00:08:05.879 --> 00:08:10.319
her clothes and suitcase were still in her room, along
90
00:08:10.399 --> 00:08:15.600
with her last paycheck from the library uncashed, and even
91
00:08:15.759 --> 00:08:22.120
her prescription allergy pills. These were red flags. Donna hadn't
92
00:08:22.199 --> 00:08:26.319
packed any belongings for the trip. She had very little
93
00:08:26.399 --> 00:08:31.160
cash on hand, likely no more than ten dollars, and
94
00:08:31.240 --> 00:08:35.799
she would of course never travel without her necessary medication.
95
00:08:37.480 --> 00:08:41.159
Late that Sunday night, at around eleven thirty p m.
96
00:08:41.960 --> 00:08:47.000
The concerned house parents of Donna's residence officially reported her
97
00:08:47.039 --> 00:08:53.399
missing to the DeKalb Police. Despite the worry from Donna's
98
00:08:53.480 --> 00:09:01.240
friends and family, the initial police response was subdued. Investigators
99
00:09:01.279 --> 00:09:05.559
had no immediate evidence of foul play and leaned on
100
00:09:05.639 --> 00:09:09.399
the theory that Donna had taken off on her own
101
00:09:10.159 --> 00:09:23.120
for personal reasons. Quote there was no abduction reported to us.
102
00:09:23.679 --> 00:09:28.480
Detective Don Burke later explained, noting the lack of any
103
00:09:28.559 --> 00:09:34.799
witness to a crime. In those first days, authorities remained
104
00:09:34.960 --> 00:09:41.000
optimistic that Donna would turn up. They reminded her anxious
105
00:09:41.080 --> 00:09:45.039
loved ones that a college student disappearing for a weekend
106
00:09:45.759 --> 00:09:52.879
wasn't unprecedented given the era's hang loose culture. Perhaps Donna
107
00:09:52.919 --> 00:09:59.840
was finding herself or enjoying a spontaneous adventure, the police suggested,
108
00:10:00.600 --> 00:10:05.440
and would be back on Monday as if nothing had happened.
109
00:10:06.879 --> 00:10:15.279
This optimistic outlook, however, would prove devastatingly wrong. While official
110
00:10:15.399 --> 00:10:21.720
efforts lagged, Donna's family and friends were in agony. Her
111
00:10:21.759 --> 00:10:26.320
parents in Brookfield were frantic, and at some point in
112
00:10:26.399 --> 00:10:32.279
the days following her disappearance, they began receiving chilling, anonymous
113
00:10:32.320 --> 00:10:37.559
phone calls at their home. Each time, the caller would sneer,
114
00:10:38.399 --> 00:10:43.879
I know where your daughter is and then abruptly hang up.
115
00:10:45.120 --> 00:10:50.720
The mysterious calls came six or seven times, tormenting the
116
00:10:50.799 --> 00:10:56.679
Dolls with fear and uncertainty. To this day, it's unclear
117
00:10:56.879 --> 00:11:00.879
who placed those calls, or if they were or genuinely
118
00:11:00.960 --> 00:11:07.200
from Donna's abductor or simply a cruel prankster taking advantage
119
00:11:07.240 --> 00:11:12.399
of the situation. But at the time, law enforcement still
120
00:11:12.480 --> 00:11:17.879
largely treated Donna as a possible runaway or missing person,
121
00:11:18.679 --> 00:11:23.879
not necessarily a crime victim. The result was that nine
122
00:11:24.039 --> 00:11:30.320
long days elapsed with little progress in finding her. That
123
00:11:30.399 --> 00:11:34.639
all changed with the discovery in the Cornfield on October eleventh.
124
00:11:35.559 --> 00:11:39.200
Nelson Road, where the body was found, is a quiet
125
00:11:39.360 --> 00:11:44.080
rural stretch about a mile west of campus, a spot
126
00:11:44.279 --> 00:11:49.399
popular among students in the seventies for parking and partying
127
00:11:49.440 --> 00:11:55.679
in their cars away from prying eyes. When the teenagers
128
00:11:55.759 --> 00:12:01.080
led police to the corpse at eight thirty p m Sunday,
129
00:12:02.000 --> 00:12:09.440
any hopes of Donna's safe return were shattered. Investigators observed
130
00:12:09.519 --> 00:12:13.480
that the deceased woman was lying on her back beneath
131
00:12:13.480 --> 00:12:18.320
a tree, fully dressed in the blouse and skirt Donna
132
00:12:18.360 --> 00:12:23.840
had been wearing on October second, but with notable oddities,
133
00:12:24.639 --> 00:12:28.480
she was no longer wearing the long black trench coat.
134
00:12:28.919 --> 00:12:33.039
Witnesses recalled her leaving work in that night, and in
135
00:12:33.080 --> 00:12:37.759
its place was a blue jacket that did not belong
136
00:12:37.840 --> 00:12:43.159
to her. Furthermore, her shoes and her brown leather purse
137
00:12:43.799 --> 00:12:49.240
were missing and never recovered, along with the original trench coat.
138
00:12:50.480 --> 00:12:55.519
Despite these discrepancies, by three am on October twelve, the
139
00:12:55.559 --> 00:13:01.879
body was positively identified as Donna Doll when her ex boyfriend,
140
00:13:02.159 --> 00:13:05.480
twenty three year old Charles Burke, came to view the
141
00:13:05.559 --> 00:13:11.519
remains and confirmed it was her. The peaceful college town
142
00:13:11.600 --> 00:13:17.759
of De cob was plunged into panic and grief. Unexplained
143
00:13:17.799 --> 00:13:22.039
homicides were so rare in the area that the county
144
00:13:22.200 --> 00:13:26.480
didn't even have its own morgue at the time. Local
145
00:13:26.559 --> 00:13:32.080
newspapers described an atmosphere of shock and dread after Donna's
146
00:13:32.080 --> 00:13:35.919
body was found. If it could happen to a diligent,
147
00:13:36.480 --> 00:13:43.120
innocent student like her who might be next quote. Everyone
148
00:13:43.279 --> 00:13:47.440
was wondering, is there some type of serial killer roaming
149
00:13:47.519 --> 00:13:51.720
the streets of rural de cob recalled Captain Jin Laban
150
00:13:52.440 --> 00:13:57.399
of the Sheriff's police. Parents kept closer watch on their children,
151
00:13:58.000 --> 00:14:01.159
and students locked their doors at night. In a town
152
00:14:01.279 --> 00:14:07.320
where such precautions once felt unnecessary, the fear of a
153
00:14:07.399 --> 00:14:12.200
murderer on the loose gripped the community, at least until
154
00:14:12.240 --> 00:14:17.240
police announced they had a very specific theory of the crime.
155
00:14:18.279 --> 00:14:23.840
From the moment Donna's death was confirmed, investigators gravitated toward
156
00:14:24.000 --> 00:14:30.519
one primary suspect. They believed that whoever killed Donna likely
157
00:14:30.600 --> 00:14:35.799
knew her well. There were no obvious signs of violence
158
00:14:35.879 --> 00:14:40.759
on her body, no cuts, no bruises, no evidence of
159
00:14:40.879 --> 00:14:46.440
sexual assault, which suggested a stealthy method of killing and
160
00:14:46.559 --> 00:14:51.960
a victim who might not have seen it coming. There
161
00:14:52.039 --> 00:14:56.279
was no violence in the death, no visible signs of violence,
162
00:14:56.399 --> 00:14:59.919
which indicates they had to be close and know each other,
163
00:15:00.600 --> 00:15:05.679
observed DCAB County Sheriff Roger Scott of the killer's probable
164
00:15:05.759 --> 00:15:12.360
relationship to Donna. The autopsy result soon supported this initial hunch.
165
00:15:13.159 --> 00:15:20.559
In Perplexing Ways County Coroner Paul Van Nada's examination determined
166
00:15:20.600 --> 00:15:24.440
that Donna had been alive for at least forty eight
167
00:15:24.480 --> 00:15:29.559
hours after she vanished on October second, meaning she was
168
00:15:29.679 --> 00:15:35.679
kept alive until at least late Sunday, October fourth, before
169
00:15:35.799 --> 00:15:41.399
being killed. The cause of death was ultimately ruled as suffocation,
170
00:15:42.440 --> 00:15:46.440
likely by smothering with a pillow case or a plastic
171
00:15:46.559 --> 00:15:52.080
bag over her nose and mouth. Tiny traces of aspirated
172
00:15:52.200 --> 00:15:59.159
vomit were found in her lungs, consistent with asphyxiation, yet notably,
173
00:15:59.720 --> 00:16:03.879
no fibers or fabric debris were present in her airways,
174
00:16:04.720 --> 00:16:08.720
which would typically be expected if a cloth, pillow or
175
00:16:08.919 --> 00:16:14.320
hand had been used. This detail hinted that perhaps a
176
00:16:14.360 --> 00:16:18.919
plastic material like a bag was used to asphyxiate her,
177
00:16:19.600 --> 00:16:25.799
leaving no fibers behind. There were other bizarre findings. The
178
00:16:25.879 --> 00:16:31.000
coroner discovered that some kind of mystery substance had been
179
00:16:31.120 --> 00:16:37.840
drizzled over parts of Donna's body. What this liquid was, chemicals, food,
180
00:16:38.080 --> 00:16:43.480
or something else could not be determined, and it added
181
00:16:43.480 --> 00:16:49.240
another layer of strangeness to the crime scene. Even more
182
00:16:49.320 --> 00:16:55.240
shocking was what they found inside Donna's stomach. Some time
183
00:16:55.399 --> 00:16:59.679
in the two days before she was killed, Donna Doll
184
00:16:59.759 --> 00:17:06.039
had consumed an inordinate amount of potatoes, roughly five to
185
00:17:06.160 --> 00:17:12.599
six pounds of boiled potatoes. Investigators were utterly baffled by
186
00:17:12.640 --> 00:17:16.680
this detail. Why on earth would a young woman eat
187
00:17:16.960 --> 00:17:22.240
such a massive quantity of potatoes in one sitting? Was
188
00:17:22.279 --> 00:17:26.440
she force fed as some form of torture or control?
189
00:17:27.160 --> 00:17:32.200
Did the potatoes contain a sedative or a poison to incapacitator.
190
00:17:38.839 --> 00:17:46.200
Had Donna herself desperately eaten something peculiar under duress. The
191
00:17:46.279 --> 00:17:51.200
source and reason for the potato binge were never established,
192
00:17:51.759 --> 00:17:55.440
leaving behind a haunting question mark at the center of
193
00:17:55.480 --> 00:18:01.559
the case. Combined with the changed coat, the missing personal items,
194
00:18:02.000 --> 00:18:07.759
and the unidentified liquid the potatoes, made it clear whoever
195
00:18:07.880 --> 00:18:14.160
killed Donna had gone to elaborate perplexing lengths far beyond
196
00:18:14.799 --> 00:18:20.039
a simple murder. Still, in the midst of these puzzles,
197
00:18:20.680 --> 00:18:27.200
detectives focused on the most straightforward explanation, Donna's recent ex boyfriend,
198
00:18:27.720 --> 00:18:32.960
Charles Burke. Charles was well known to Donna's friends and family.
199
00:18:33.759 --> 00:18:38.039
He was her first serious boyfriend, a graduate student in
200
00:18:38.079 --> 00:18:42.759
mathematics at NIU, and the very person who had identified
201
00:18:42.839 --> 00:18:47.319
her body for the police. The two had dated on
202
00:18:47.440 --> 00:18:51.720
and off, but by the autumn of nineteen seventy their
203
00:18:51.759 --> 00:18:57.160
relationship was in turmoil. Donna had told friends that Charles
204
00:18:57.319 --> 00:19:02.000
was extremely possessive and that she she felt smothered by him.
205
00:19:02.559 --> 00:19:07.400
Je Alot bluntly described Charles as a possessive jerk who
206
00:19:07.519 --> 00:19:13.440
wasn't intellectually on Donna's level. Learning of Donna's interest in
207
00:19:13.480 --> 00:19:18.880
another man could well have enraged Charles, police considered the
208
00:19:18.920 --> 00:19:24.240
classic motive of jealousy. Donna was planning to leave him
209
00:19:24.839 --> 00:19:29.240
and he couldn't bear it. In the eyes of investigators,
210
00:19:29.920 --> 00:19:35.680
this scenario spurned lover Kill's girlfriend fit far more neatly
211
00:19:36.240 --> 00:19:41.039
than any far fetched theories about random killers with potato
212
00:19:41.119 --> 00:19:47.039
fetishes or satanic cults in cornfields. As one officer later
213
00:19:47.200 --> 00:19:53.400
remarked about alternate theories, quote, there was nothing else that
214
00:19:53.480 --> 00:20:00.160
made sense beyond a personal cause. Circumstantial evidence supporting the
215
00:20:00.279 --> 00:20:05.359
Charles theory began to stack up. Charles Burke lived alone
216
00:20:05.559 --> 00:20:10.480
in an apartment at suburban Estates, an area very close
217
00:20:10.920 --> 00:20:15.839
to where Donna's body was dumped on Nelson Road. He
218
00:20:15.920 --> 00:20:19.400
had even organized and led a search party of Donna's
219
00:20:19.440 --> 00:20:23.759
friends in the days she was missing, a search that
220
00:20:24.160 --> 00:20:29.240
ironically combed an area only a quarter mile from the
221
00:20:29.279 --> 00:20:34.440
spot where her body would later be found. If Charles
222
00:20:34.440 --> 00:20:39.160
had been involved orchestrating a nearly successful search that just
223
00:20:39.319 --> 00:20:45.240
barely missed the corpse is an unnerving detail. Moreover, the
224
00:20:45.279 --> 00:20:49.079
fact that Donna showed no defensive wounds or signs of
225
00:20:49.160 --> 00:20:54.720
struggle made detective suspect she initially trusted her assailant enough
226
00:20:55.359 --> 00:20:59.480
to be in close quarters with him. Perhaps someone had
227
00:20:59.559 --> 00:21:03.799
lured her into a car or home under friendly pretenses,
228
00:21:04.519 --> 00:21:09.799
then held her captive. The timeline from the autopsy suggested
229
00:21:09.920 --> 00:21:14.480
Donna was alive for a couple of days after her disappearance,
230
00:21:15.039 --> 00:21:18.599
which aligns with the idea that her killer kept her
231
00:21:18.720 --> 00:21:25.519
hidden before ultimately suffocating her. Such behavior, restraining a victim
232
00:21:25.599 --> 00:21:29.599
without immediate violence, seemed more likely the work of a
233
00:21:29.720 --> 00:21:36.359
jilted acquaintance than a random predator. When authorities publicly revealed
234
00:21:36.400 --> 00:21:40.960
that Charles Burke was their prime suspect, his reaction only
235
00:21:41.079 --> 00:21:47.759
intensified suspicions. On October twentieth, nineteen seventy, the Decab County
236
00:21:47.799 --> 00:21:52.400
Sheriff announced to the press that a certain individual, never
237
00:21:52.519 --> 00:21:57.440
officially named in the newspapers, but clearly referring to Charles,
238
00:21:58.200 --> 00:22:03.000
was under scrutiny in the US Dull case. That very night,
239
00:22:03.599 --> 00:22:08.400
Charles attempted to take his own life by slashing his wrists.
