Bring Jennifer Lynn Olson - Servo's Killer to Justice !!
Updated: December 7, 2009
Following graduation from University of Montana, Jennifer Lynn Olson - Servo had landed her first television job for KRBC-TV in Abilene, Texas in July 2002. But less than three months later, on September 18, 2002, her body was found in her apartment. Jennifer was the victim of blunt force trauma homicide. In the past 6 years, Jennifer's story has been told through many media outlets. The search for justice for Jennifer continues.
September 23, should have been my daughter Jennifer's 30th birthday.
Its hard to imagine. Her talent, creativity and wonderful sense of humor were too much for evil in this world. The false people who victimized her have eternity to pay.
This is an Unsolved Military Homicide relating to Jennifer's service in the US Army Reserve but the Army has made no attempt at any internal investigation. A prime suspect could be required to take the polygraph exam under the Unified Code of Conduct if the US Army at Fort Carson in Colorado Springs would make the effort. The polygraph is something a main suspect refused to cooperate with Abilene Police, but the Army could make it happen if we could get their help.
Every once in a while, I get an e-mail inquiring about Mr. Binx and where he is. He's been over 7 years with me now. He's so intelligent and so traumatized. He knows the killer well, if he could only talk. When company is in the house, he hides behind boxes on a work bench in the basement, or under the bed upstairs. Then he comes out when company leaves and I tell him 'its ok Mr. Binx'. He's a funny, smart little buddy and besides holding him during the day, he leans against me all night long. We both lost the single most important little girl in our lives and we share that daily.
And so you see I have come to doubt
All that I once held as true
I stand alone without beliefs
The only truth I know is you.
And as I watch the drops of rain
Weave their weary paths and die
I know that I am like the rain
There but for the grace of you go I.
Be aware of aggressive hostile parenting and protect your child from the lies intended to seperate your child from the loving relastionship, the support and the guidance only you can give.
ABC News All Media has repackaged its Primetime story about Jennifer for syndication. Beginning in October 2009 the program will air on a couple networks including E! and will replay periodically over the next 3 years. The name of the program is "Mystery in Texas" and has started airing with frequent broadcasts.
This is one of the last images I have of Jennifer. Also in the photo is Ralph Sepulveda.
Ralph Sepulveda 'refused to take lie detector test' following the murder of Jennifer. - Cosmopolitan (Sept. 2003)
'Everything about Sepulveda is suspicious' - APD detective quote in AY Magazine (June 2006)
Sepulveda never offered condolences to Jennifer's family despite having met Jennifer's mother twice, including in Abilene when Jennifer's mother left Jenn with him after he had followed her there.
Sepulveda refuses to cooperate in any way with investigators now.
Most recent information says that 2nd Lt. Ralph Sepulveda is stationed at Fort Carson, Colorado Springs, CO.
If you have any information regarding the past and/or present of Ralph Sepulveda of Colorado Springs CO, Tacoma WA, Missoula Montana, Phoenix Arizona and Tennessee, please send it via e-mail to justiceforjennifer@hotmail.com
The April 16 edition of Our hometown newspaper, The Hungry Horse News included an article about Jennifer and ongoing effort to gather information in the case.
Chad McGhee has made a new musical video tribute to Jennifer. Jennifer Lynn Olson - Servo Tribute on youtube.com. Chad is one of many who have been inspired by the Amazing Jennifer, and I really appreciate his tribute and help in keeping Jennifer's story alive.
This is the last Father's Day card I'll ever get from Jennifer. I've included the June 18, 2001 postmark.
Following graduation from University of Montana with a degree in journalism, 22 year old Jennifer Lynn Olson - Servo, an active U.S. Army Reservist, moved to Abilene TX and worked at her first full-time tv reporter job at KRBC TV. She was followed to Texas by a
34 year old former Army Ranger who she had recently met at Army Reserve training in Helena, Montana. Jennifer Servo (she'd used "Servo" the last year of her life) had been in Abilene less than 3 months when colleagues became concerned that she hadn't returned phone calls. They asked her apartment manager to check on her. She was found dead, a homicide victim from head trauma and strangulation.
Jennifer Lynn Olson, a native of Columbia Falls, Montana, enlisted in the U.S. Army Reserve in 1996 and served until she was murdered on September 16, 2002 in Abilene Texas.
There were no signs of forced entry or a struggle and all DNA results were accountable to friends and acquaintances. Jennifer apparently knew the killer and the degree of violence indicates rage. It is a matter of time until more sophisticated forensic technologies, along with determined police work, will result in charges against the killer. Until then, we ask that anyone with any information regarding this unsolved crime or the articles taken from Jennifer's apartment, submit the information through the web site and it will be forwarded to the Abilene Police Department. The Tips Form can be sent anonymously if you prefer. The Abilene Police and Jennifer Olson's family are making every effort to bring the dirtbag to justice. We appreciate all the victim and crime resource web sites that host links and/or banners to this web site.
It is thought that the killer possibly fled Texas.
The missing items include:
A Guess? purse, square tote "Eva" model
A "Kyocera" brand cell phone
Three seasons of HBO series "Sex in the City" DVD's and a "Saving Private Ryan" DVD
