Episode 67: Judy Martins with guest reader Stephanie Sy-Quia

She Goes By Jane

How quickly can someone just…disappear? One minute there, the next gone. How could someone leave a dorm party at a busy college campus and not make it to their own residence, just 300 yards away? In 1978, a 22 year old college sophomore, Judy Martins, stepped out of a dorm building at Kent State University and into darkness.

This week we’re joined by Stephanie Sy-Quia, a writer and broadcaster based in London. She is the presenter of Eccentric Circles, a podcast about cities and the influential oddballs who lived in them.
