Solving a cold case is a challenging endeavor, but solving historic cold cases is another matter. Both are in a league of their own. The challenge of recreating these three true crime stories that rocked the community, mid-west, and even the nation, is the fact that many of the police reports were destroyed. Through extensive research, exclusive interviews, and investigative insight these true cold cases are brought back to life.
True Crime in Titletown, USA ~ Cold Cases takes you back to the days when the Tommy Gun ruled and the forbidden fruit was controlled by Prohibition. Over 90 sources were utilized to make these cold cases warm again.
