September 20th: Jane Marie Prichard Killed(1986)

When a case has DNA evidence left behind, we assume that means it might be easier to solve and bring someone to justice. On September 20th 1986 a young woman was killed and, left behind at the scene, was a piece of DNA that investigators hoped would help solve the case. Unfortunately, 36 years later, the answers are slim and the questions continue to pile up.

September 19th: Sabine Radmacher Kills (2010)

A lack of motive leaves a case feeling unsolved. Even if the killer is caught. On September 19th 2010 a woman without a motive killed 3 and injured 18. And, because she was taken down by police before she could kill more, her reasons and any potential motive remains a mystery.
