Today, SAC Kowel joined our federal, state, and local law enforcement partners at the USAO – Northern District of Iowa for the announcement of charges against two men in relation to the death of 14-year-old McKenna Wendel.
Violent crimes against children will always receive the full weight of federal investigative resources, and FBI Omaha remains committed to working alongside our partners and across jurisdictions to secure justice for victims and their families.
