About Me

Jackie Johns was a twenty year old part time waitress and former homecoming queen when she went missing on a hot summer night in 1985.There was an alleged suspect in her murder, Gerald Carnahan, but authorities never had enough evidence too charge him in Jackies murder.........until recently.On August 9, 2007, Gerald Carnahan was finally charged with Jackie's murder. Cops say DNA evidence left on Jackie's body allegedly belongs to Gerald Carnahan.Les Johns, Jackie's 80 year old father, says he didn't think he would live too see this day. Energized and feeling positive about developments in his daughter's case, he says he feels like he can live another twenty years. He also vows to be at EVERY one of Gerald Carnahan's court appearances.
