Undetermined

It Takes a Village | 7

Some Lakeview neighbors and an entire online community rally for justice for Jessica. One neighbor tells his story about aggressive and volatile messages between himself and someone who he believes is Justin about a year after Jessica’s death – in which, the person sending those text messages, confesses to some things surrounding her case. Another neighbor is the eyes and ears for Jessica’s family, taking photos and circling the neighborhood to see what’s happening around Jessica’s home. And a couple stumbles upon another piece of evidence where Jessica was found seven months earlier. Audrey goes to the virtual village – social media and starts an online petition – and someone with power in NOLA takes notice.

In a coroner’s report, the word “undetermined” is used to describe the cause or manner of death when there’s insufficient evidence to lend a more specific classification. In 2019, Jessica Easterly Durning went missing from her New Orleans home; her body was found days later, just two and a half blocks away. Her death was classified as undetermined, but due to evidence of foul play, her friends and family believe someone played a role in her suspicious disappearance. Investigative journalist Jessica Noll and former Detective Todd McComas dig deep into this unsolved case and search for answers to Jessica’s untimely death. From the team that brought you ‘To Live and Die in LA’ and ‘Culpable’, this is ‘Undetermined’.
