Season 3 Of 'Unsolved' Focuses On Priest's 1998 Death

courtesy Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

Alfred Kunz was a Catholic priest, the pastor of a church called St. Michael in the rural south central Wisconsin town of Dane. He served the community for years, but on March 4, 1998, he was found murdered in violent fashion in the church complex. No one has been arrested or convicted for the crime.

The Kunz murder is the backbone for the third season of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel’s Unsolved series and podcast. Reporter Gina Barton joins us in the studio and says that more than 20 years later, the Kunz case remains notorious in that small town.
