In 1982, the small ski town of Vail, Colorado was rocked by a chilling double murder. Annette Schnee and Bobbie Jo Oberholtzer were found dead in a snowdrift off a secluded road, their bodies frozen in the cold night air. But what could have caused such a horrific tragedy?
That same evening, another man was rescued from the same snowdrift where the bodies were discovered – John Joubert, an ex-Air Force cadet turned serial killer. Joubert had abducted both Annette and Bobbie Jo days before their deaths, driving them to the remote location with the intent to kill. After brutally murdering both young women, Joubert left their bodies in the snowdrift and fled into the night.
Today, this case is widely considered one of the most shocking unsolved double murders in American history. To this day, reports continue to surface about what really happened on that fateful night outside Vail and how one person could be responsible for such an atrocity.
