Death of Ingrid Valverde-Ponce, Mistrial of Gerson Blas Noe

Ingrid Isamar Valverde-Ponce, 27, was found dead on Jan. 14, 2025, in a field near Sun Prairie after being reported missing by her family. Gerson Blas Noe was arrested, as law enforcement say he was the last person to see her alive. While Blas Noe was convicted of providing false information on a missing persons case, the jury couldn't come to an agreement on charges of first-degree intentional homicide and hiding a corpse. 

True Crime Wisconsin, a new weekly podcast from WMTV 15 News, goes beyond the headlines to investigate the state's most haunting unsolved cases. Wisconsin has made national news for some high-profile crimes — but not every case gets that kind of attention. Some stories fade from the spotlight, and some are never solved.

Each week, WMTV 15 News digs into a different case from across Wisconsin, talking with the detectives and investigators still working to find answers, and the people who may hold the missing piece of the puzzle. The goal: bring renewed attention — and maybe new information — to cases that still need closure.

The case may go cold. The questions don't. New episodes drop every week.
