Murdered & Missing: A True Crime Podcast

Ep. 16: Where is Bethany Markowski?

Bethany was spending the weekend with her father, Larry when she went missing in early March. Bethany called her mom at 9:38 am on March 4, 2001, where they exchanged I love you's, and I'll see you later. However, later never came for the mother and daughter. Larry would claim he last saw Bethany walk into a mall in Jackson and never saw her again. What unfolded next left a hole in a mother's heart that can never be filled.
Where is Bethany? If you have any information regarding the disappearance of Bethany Markowski, I ask that you call the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation (TBI) at 1-800-TBI-FIND, that’s 1-800-824-3463, or you can send an email to TipsToTBI@tn.gov, you can call the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children at 1-800-The-Lost. You can also contact the Jackson Police department at 731-425-8400.
