Dakota Spotlight: You Killed Chris
You Killed Chris: A Friend’s Fight for Justice” delves into the chilling and unresolved case of Christine Rothschild, an 18-year-old university student whose life was brutally cut short in 1968. Against the tumultuous backdrop of the 1960’s counterculture movement and social change sweeping the US, Season 10 of Dakota Spotlight, by James Wolner, takes listeners beyond the infamous Manson murders to uncover a lesser-known but equally sinister tale of murder, mystery, and obsession on the campus of the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
Through detailed interviews with those who knew Christine, and the tireless efforts of her friend Linda to solve the case, this series unravels the dark underbelly of a community shaken by violence.
Join us as we navigate the twists and turns of this cold case, shedding light on the shadowy figure of a suspected stalker, and explore the profound impact of a life lost too soon. Woven into a pivotal era of American history, “You Killed Chris” is not just a story of murder; it's an intricate narrative of loss, perseverance, and one friend’s relentless pursuit of justice.
