Replay: Case Continued - Ruth Egnoski - Open Secrets

Ruth Egnoski’s story was difficult to piece together. Between fragmented newspaper archives and fading memories, there were gaps we feared might never be filled. We couldn’t even determine what year Ruth had disappeared. We had submitted records requests to the Delavan Police Department, but at the time we produced the episode, we had received no response. Given the uncertainty and the reality that some departments never respond, despite open records laws requiring them to do so, we decided to move forward with the story. Then, less than a month after the episode aired, we were stunned to receive a large police file from the Delavan Police Department. The documents inside answered many of the lingering questions we’d had just weeks earlier, and what we found was shocking. If you have any information about the disappearance of Ruth Egnoski, please contact the Delavan Police Department at 262-728-6311.
