141: MURDER: Wil Hendrick

June 15, 2026 · 50 min

Show notes

On the night of January 9, 1999, 25-year-old Wil Hendrick left his home in Moscow, Idaho, to attend a party with friends. He had recently celebrated his birthday, was preparing to start his final semester of college, and was looking forward to auditioning for a play just two days later. But Wil never came home.

More than 27 years later, his case remains unsolved, leaving everyone with the same question: what happened to Wil Hendrick?

Anyone with information in this case is asked to contact the Latah County Sheriff’s Office at (208) 882-2216.
