Cold and Missing: Sister Roberta ‘Robin’ Elam

Postulant nun Sister Robin Elam (full name: Roberta Elam) was spending time at her convent for an 8 day silent retreat. Her time was spent praying and meditating and those that knew her assumed she was also using the time to wrestle with her decision to take her vows. On June 13th, 1977 Sister Robin was sitting on the convent grounds with her prayer book when she was attacked and murdered by an unknown man. Her body is found hours after the attack and police start to investigate immediately. Despite several leads over the years none have lead to the killer of Sister Robin.
