The Tragic Case of Margie Dodd | Retired Detective Frank Pack | 71

*EDITOR’S NOTES 1. We discuss the leading suspect of this case in great detail. While we don’t mention his name, we do mention that he is out of prison. This is not the case, as we have found after the show that he is in fact in prison for quite a while. Stay tuned for future updates involving the murder of Margie Dodd. 2. Kent Dodd identified Margie in the photographs by viewing rings that she owned. 3. Kent Dodd was in Ohio when the sting operation took place instead of West Virginia.

In this rare and powerful interview, Retired Detective Lt. Frank Pack sits down with J.D. to share the most in-depth conversation he’s ever given about his career—and the case that stayed with him for decades.

Frank opens up about his early years in law enforcement, his training, life-or-death situations, and major crime busts across West Virginia. But the heart of this episode is his deep and personal connection to the unsolved 1977 murder of Margaret “Margie” Dodd—a case that haunted him long after retirement.

This is more than a true crime story. It’s about persistence, justice, and a promise not to forget.
