The murders of Barbara and Gordon Erickstad in 1998 shocked Bismarck, North Dakota, and left lasting scars on all connected. Episode 6, Escape to the Movies, introduces Misty Jones — remembered as the girl with the little red car — who, in a 2020 interview, tells her story in full for the first time. Misty shares her early path to a party lifestyle, her personal struggles since the Erickstad homicides, and her memories of that fateful night. She also sheds light on Rick Storhaug, Ryan Werner, and what unfolded inside the house on Sweet and Seventh. Dakota Spotlight continues this documentary style true crime investigation into one of North Dakota’s most disturbing small town murders.
