During the late 80s and early 90s, multiple women from Hartford, Connecticut were found dead in remote areas of the city and surrounding towns. After identifying a suspect in one of the cases and bringing it all the way to trial, police thought they might have a serial killer on their hands. But all the suspicion in the world was proven false when years later advanced DNA analysis challenged what investigators thought they knew.

During the winter of 1941, the death of Philip Wendel Boyce found in a downtown Portland, Maine alleyway left investigators divided by two very different theories: Was it an accident or was it murder?
Every once in a while, I like to go way, way back and unearth cases that might otherwise be lost with time. Given its age and the circumstances youâre about to hear, itâs unlikely that any investigative resources will be devoted to this case ever again⊠But thatâs exactly the kind of story that deserves to be told.
