Katie Poirier // Minnesota // 41 - a podcast by Megan and Hanna Hawkins

On May 26th, 1999, 19-year-old Katie Poirier was abducted  while working at DJ's Expressway.  This convenience store was located near Interstate 35, on the outskirts of Moose Lake, Minnesota.  The store had four surveillance cameras, but they were too grainy to see the abductor.  Police sent the tapes to NASA and Solar Physicist Dr. David Hathaway was able to view the images.  He could see a man with short, blonde or gray hair, about 5'10", average build, and wore a dark NY Yankees baseball jersey with the number 23 on the back.  Tips were rolling in and Katie's friend, Kathy Hanek, who worked at the Subway Sandwich shop, saw a suspicious man and got part of the license plate number, 557 --Y.  The tips lead the police to a man named Donald Blom.  They searched his property and found a tooth with a filling.  The filling had elements that were very unusual.  Investigators found out that Katie had gotten a filling 2 weeks prior to her abduction.  Her dentist used a brand new material that wasn't on the market yet.  This filling helped solve the whole case.
