Bonus episode! We’re revisiting four unforgettable cold cases previously covered on True Crime Recaps, now compiled into one longer episode with new narration and case updates.
Two young women are murdered years apart, with both cases eventually cracked through advances in DNA technology. A mother is found murdered inside her Maryland home, and more than two decades pass before DNA finally exposes someone who had once been close to her family. And a little boy remains unidentified for more than 60 years, known only as “The Boy in the Box,” until forensic genealogy finally gives him back his name.
These are the cases of Mandy Stavik, Lisa Ziegert, Leslie Preer, and Joseph Augustus Zarelli, four investigations separated by decades but connected by evidence that refused to disappear.
For some families, advances in forensic science finally led investigators to the people responsible. For another, DNA answered one of the biggest questions while leaving another mystery still unsolved.
This bonus compilation brings together our previous coverage of all four cases in one extended True Crime Recaps episode, with new narration exploring how DNA transformed investigations that once seemed impossible to crack.
