Episode 04 – The Devils in the Donald’s
Katie Poirier was a 19-year-old college student who worked at a gas station in Moose Lake, Minnesota. On the evening of July 29, 1999, she was abducted from the gas station by a man named Donald Blom. Blom was a criminal with a history of violence and had recently been released from prison.
After kidnapping Poirier, Blom took her to a remote location and murdered her. Her disappearance sparked an intensive search operation, and law enforcement agencies along with the community worked tirelessly to find her. Unfortunately, her body was found on August 23, 1999, about three weeks after her abduction. This discovery led to the arrest of Donald Blom.
During the trial, evidence and witness testimonies pointed to Donald Blom as the perpetrator. He was convicted of first-degree murder and kidnapping in March 2000 and subsequently sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
The Katie Poirier case was widely covered by the media and had a significant impact on the community and the state of Minnesota. It served as a reminder of the importance of public safety measures and the need to address issues related to repeat offenders in the criminal justice system. The case also spurred discussions on the importance of community involvement in reporting and preventing crimes.
