About this episode

The episode explores three haunting cold cases from the 1950s, highlighting the darker side of the decade.

For many of us, the 1950s conjures up images of perky housewives in full skirts; the iconic Chevrolet Bel Air, and rock and roll bands in matching suits, armed with "Elvis" microphones. But like with any decade, the 1950s wasn't immune to crime, and it has an abundance of cold cases just waiting to be solved. In today's video, we aim to shed light on just a few of them as we take a look at Three Disturbing Cold Cases from the 1950s.
