Roberta Elam was on her way to becoming a full-fledged nun when her life was taken at only 26 years old. She was described as a happy, energetic, and educated woman who was fiercely devoted to her faith. Sister Robin as she was known at the convent, was on a silent retreat when in broad daylight she was murdered by an unknown man. All leads dried up quickly and her case became cold, but with the ever evolving DNA technology Sister Robin’s case could be solved. If you know anything about what happened to Roberta Elam please contact West Virginia State Police at 304-746-2100 or the Wheeling Police Department at 304-234-3664.Patreon &amp; Apple Subscriptions heard it first.#westvirginia #sisterrobin #sisterrobertaelam #murder #unsolved #unsolvedmysteryThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5007362/advertisement

West Virginia : Sister Roberta Elam

June 13, 1977. Ohio County, West Virginia. Roberta Elam, a 26-year old postulant known as “Sister Robin” who is planning to become a nun, is seen living the motherhouse of the Mount St. Joseph convent. Hours later, Sister Robin’s body is found on top of a nearby hill in a secluded mediation area and she has been raped and strangled to death. There is immediate speculation that the crime might be connected to the murders of four other young women, which took place in neighbouring Washington County during the preceding months. However, in recent years, investigators have started looking at a potential suspect who supposedly confessed to Sister Robin’s murder. On this week’s episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we cover the unsolved death of Sister Roberta Elam and explore its potential connection to a number of other homicides which took place during that time period.Additional Reading:  https://www.oxygen.com/the-dna-of-murder-with-paul-holes/crime-news/paul-holes-roberta-elam-nun-murder  https://www.post-gazette.com/uncategorized/2005/10/16/Case-reopened-in-1977-killing-of-postulant-nun/stories/200510160251  “Who Killed…?
