F2Falsche FährtenIn this classic episode of Forensic Files, the longest running true crime series in television history, Eileen and Derrick Severs disappeared from their home in the small village of Hambleton in Great Britain, and police found evidence which suggested foul play. Careful analysis of a soil sample would tell investigators not only what happened to the couple, but who was responsible for the dirty deed. - Zweifelhafte Zeugen
F3Zweifelhafte ZeugenFür die mysteriösen Grippesymptome von Peggy Carr findet sich scheinbar keine medizinische Erklärung. Erst ein Neurologe stellt zufällig fest, dass seine Patientin offenbar an den Folgen einer Thallium-Vergiftung leidet. Als das tödliche Gift schließlich Peggys Leben ein Ende setzt, gerät ihr Ehemann Pye unter Mordverdacht, obwohl dessen psychologisches Profil nicht dem eines Killers entspricht. - Rekonstruktion des Todes
F4Rekonstruktion des TodesNach dem spurlosen Verschwinden von Ruby Morris gerät bald ihr Ehemann Earl ins Fadenkreuz der Ermittlungen. Im Badezimmer gefundene Blutspuren legen den Schluss nahe, dass Ruby einen schweren Schlag auf den Kopf erlitten haben muss. Während die Indizienlast immer erdrückender wird, bleibt der Mordverdächtige standhaft bei der Geschichte, seine Frau habe Selbstmord begangen. - Bis dass der Tod uns scheidet
F6Bis dass der Tod uns scheidetIn a quiet village in Great Britain, a farmer came upon a chilling sight. Impaled on his fence post was a severed lamb’s head along with a note which read, “You next.” The author of the note didn’t elaborate on why the farmer had been targeted, but between the lines, he’d said plenty. - Tod im Rotlichtmilieu
F7Tod im RotlichtmilieuAn infant was rushed to a Cleveland emergency room with serious breathing problems. The baby’s lungs were bleeding, a life threatening, extremely rare condition. Within months, there were more than 30 cases – an incidence more than a thousand times higher than anywhere else in the world. Doctors had never seen anything like it, and searched frantically for the cause and a cure. - Unter Verdacht
F10Unter VerdachtFor more than a year, angry, hateful letters were sent to a first grade school teacher in a small town in Pennsylvania. When scientists analyzed the letters, they found evidence that the stalker knew a lot about the victim - more, in fact, than anyone could possibly have imagined. DNA analysis would eventually help seal the perpetrator's fate.
