The Boy in the Box: They Found His Name, But Not His Killer Pt. 3

About this episode

In 2002, a woman told investigators she'd watched the Boy in the Box die as a child, and she knew two facts that had never been made public. Investigators were split. Then, two decades later, forensic genealogy did what no detective ever could.
