#295 - In December 1988, a road crew in rural Ware County, Georgia, discovered an abandoned television console on the side of Duncan Bridge Road. Inside was a black suitcase. Inside that suitcase, a duffel bag. And inside the bag — the body of a little girl.
For decades, no one knew her name. She was remembered only as “Christmas Doe.”
Thirty-four years later, advances in forensic genealogy finally gave her identity back. Now, investigators say they know who is responsible for her death.
This episode follows the heartbreaking story of Christmas Doe, the decades-long mystery of who she was, and how modern forensic science finally brought her justice.
