The Alice Parsons disappearance
Episode 5
Friday, 7 February, 2025
Hello, campers, and welcome to our mid-season episode. Once again, Jess has an old-timey crime for us to delve into. This episode contains information from author Steven C. Drielak’s book, Long Island’s Vanished Heiress: The Unsolved Alice Parsons Kidnapping.On June 9, 1937, Alice McDonell Parsons disappeared from the farm she and her husband ran in Long Island, with the help of their housekeeper, Anna Kupryanova. While not social darlings, both Alice and William Parsons were connected to wealthy families. Alice had recently been left with money and investments that would secure her future. Still, a change in her will made less than 30 days before her disappearance would indicate an interesting dynamic within the Parsons household.Sadly, neither the local agencies nor the FBI were able to outsmart the responsible persons. Although there is a consensus on how the events went down, almost 90 years later Alice Parsons disappearance remains unsolved.
