On June 27, 1995, Jodi Huisentruit didn't show up for work, and investigators immediately found signs of a struggle outside her apartment.
MINNEAPOLIS -- Tony Dejuan Jackson, a serial rapist, has served 23 years of a life sentence after being convicted in 1998 and 1999 of first-degree criminal sexual conduct, kidnapping and first-degree burglary in the Minneapolis area. But questions about the unsolved disappearance of a local TV anchor continue to follow him.
"All that I can tell you about Jodi Huisentruit is that she has become a central part of my life since I've been incarcerated," Jackson told"20/20" in a 2021 interview from the Minnesota Correctional Facility in Stillwater."It's been something that I've been, for many years, hoping will be resolved so that that stigma can be taken away from me so that I can rest."In 1995, Huisentruit was a 27-year-old local television anchor for KMIT in Mason City, Iowa.
"It's unfortunate that people try to take rape and murder and put it all together as one big heinous act and say that if you had did this, you would have done this," said Jackson.According to a local news report, a jail informant named Dennis Goff said he had briefly served time with Jackson while Jackson was awaiting trial for the 1997 rapes.
It was uncovered that Jackson had bought a car the day before Huisentruit went missing, but Jackson has repeatedly denied all allegations surrounding his alleged conversation with Goff and the rap lyrics."I'm telling you right now, I'd never been to Tiffin, Iowa. Never traveled to Tiffin, Iowa," said Jackson."I would imagine that Tiffin, Iowa, is pretty much kinda like all of the other small towns in Iowa.
