When 28-year-old Jennifer Harris went missing on Mother’s Day in 2002, rumors swirled in the small town of Bonham, Texas. All eyes were on two men…one was her ex-boyfriend and business partner, and the other was her ex-husband, who she’d recently started seeing again. But nearly 23 years later, between odd witness statements, missing evidence, and a pretty strong conflict of interest, Bonham residents and Jennifer’s family are left baffled and frustrated by her case.Anyone with information about Jennifer’s case is asked to contact the Fannin County Sheriff’s Office at 903-583-2143 or her family’s teams at reward@redrabbitjustice.com.For more information about the podcast and the cases discussed, visit VoicesforJusticePodcast.com Follow us on social media:Twitter: @VFJPodInstagram: @VoicesforJusticePodcastTikTok: @VoicesforJusticePodcastFacebook: @VoicesforJusticePodcast Voices for Justice is hosted by Sarah TurneyTwitter: @SarahETurneyInstagram: @SarahETurneyTikTok: @SarahETurneyFacebook: @SarahETurneyYouTube: @SarahTurney The introduction music used in Voices for Justice is Thread of Clouds by Blue Dot Sessions.
