Bill Kurtis reviews the 1947 murder of Elizabeth Short, popularly known as the "Black Dahlia" because of her black bouffant hairstyle. Her dismembered body was found near a sidewalk in L.A., and is the oldest unsolved case in LAPD files. Several suspects are named, including the father of a retired cop, who has written several books on the subject.
