About this episode

The episode explores the mysterious case of two technicians found dead in Brazil with lead masks and no clear cause of death.

In August 1966, two electronics technicians climbed a hill overlooking Rio de Janeiro and were never seen alive again. Days later, their bodies were discovered lying side by side, dressed in suits, waterproof coats and strange homemade lead eye masks. There were no signs of violence, no clear cause of death and almost no clues—only cryptic notes, an empty water bottle and a mystery that has baffled investigators for decades. #TrueCrime #UnsolvedMystery #LeadMasksCase #Brazil #EvidenceLocker #ColdCase #Occult #UFO #Mystery #Podcast Books: Read collections of The Evidence Locker Files , available in print and digital editions.
