Show Notes
Mary Theresa Simpson, 12, vanished when she was walking home from a relative's home in March 1964, in Elmira, New York.
Her beaten and abused body was found four days later, in a wooded area in Southport.
Joseph Scott Morgan and Dave Mack go back in time to discover what happened to Mary Simpson and why police could not find a suspect to arrest, and charge with the rape and murder of a little girl.
They also discuss how, after 60 years, the case was broken wide open due to great police work in 1964. Coupled with exceptional science work by Othram, a suspect has been named after 60 years of questions.
