Unresolved DNA leads, fading witness memories, and legal blind spots are where Cold Case True Crime starts. Each episode pulls apart forensic records, genealogical breakthroughs and investigative detail to reopen files that time nearly closed. This show focuses on cold-cases-adn: how DNA evidence, genetic genealogy and modern lab work change what was once unsolvable into a path toward answers. Expect methodical narration, primary-source documents explained in plain language, and the procedural context that separates speculation from evidence. New installments arrive every day — Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday — at 9:00 AM, so you can follow breakthroughs as investigations evolve. Episodes vary in length but consistently deliver case background, DNA analysis walkthroughs, and the legal and ethical implications that follow new identifications. Cold Case True Crime is for listeners who want more than headlines: family members seeking clarity, armchair investigators who value forensic accuracy, and true crime fans fascinated by genetic genealogy and laboratory methods. If you want clear, evidence-centered storytelling about cold cases where ADN plays a decisive role, subscribe and listen at 9:00 AM daily to stay updated. Follow now to get notified when a dormant file gets new life.© 2026 OBOMEDIA Creators ノンフィクション犯罪

  • A Shoe in the Maple Tree: The Murder of Gloria Ward

    A Shoe in the Maple Tree: The Murder of Gloria Ward
    2026/08/07
    A Shoe in the Maple Tree: The Murder of Gloria Ward

    A single cognac leather dress shoe, size seven, sat seven feet up in a silver maple for thirty years-surviving floods, ice jams and the decay of time-yet it could not say how it got there. Who left Gloria Ward’s shoe in the tree, and how did one small object finally lead detectives across three decades to an answer?

    In this episode, we tell what unfolded from the night Gloria Ward left her billing office on October 9, 1992, to the moment a retired postal worker spotted the shoe in Caulfield Nature Preserve on October 14, 2023. We follow the preserved clues, the empty apartment, the dark sedan in the loading alley, and the genealogist whose family-tree work provided the breakthrough that tied the evidence together.

    Person: Gloria Ward
    Date: October 9, 1992
    Location: Ridgely, Ohio
    Event: Shoe discovered in tree on October 14, 2023
    Case: Body recovered from drainage culvert in November 1992

    - Shoe: Autumn cognac leather dress shoe, size seven, label legible after thirty years
    - Discovery: Found wedged seven feet high in a silver maple on October 14, 2023
    - Last seen: Left Midstate Supply billing office at 6:15 PM on October 9, 1992
    - Vehicle: Gloria’s gray Honda Civic found behind her duplex on October 12 with keys on front seat
    - Witness report: Dark sedan idling near Midstate Supply loading alley between 6:00 and 6:30 PM on October 9, 1992

  • The Watch at 11:47 That Hid a Man's Silent Murder

    The Watch at 11:47 That Hid a Man's Silent Murder
    2026/08/06
    The Watch at 11:47 That Hid a Man's Silent Murder

    A Seiko watch was found face-up in a harvested cornfield on September 11, 1983, its hands stopped at 11:47 and its strap buckled at the last hole - but there was no body, no blood, and no footprints. Thirty years later that frozen time matched the exact moment Norman Jones died in his kitchen less than two miles away; how did a child's Christmas gift hold the only clue for three decades?

    In this episode, we tell how a found watch, a missing supervisor, and a genealogy database converged to reopen a case that sat in a filing cabinet since the Reagan administration - and ask how routine habits and a sealed evidence envelope hid a murder for thirty years.

    Person: Norman Jones
    Date: September 11, 1983
    Location: harvested cornfield near Cutter Flats, Ohio; Birch Run Road, Harlan County
    Status: case went cold; watch shelved for thirty years
    Event: watch found with hands stopped at 11:47

    - Watch found by 14-year-old Norman Rafferty on September 11, 1983, twenty feet from the road in a harvested cornfield.
    - Seiko watch had an uncracked crystal and strap buckled at the last hole, indicating a thick wrist.
    - Norman Jones was last seen on Thursday, September 8, 1983, and was 54 years old that summer.
    - Norman missed his shift at the corrugated box plant on Friday, September 9, prompting a missing persons report filed the following Monday.
    - The watch remained sealed in an evidence envelope in a climate-controlled room for thirty years.

  • The Coffee Cup That Outed a Killer: How Heather's Case Broke Open

    The Coffee Cup That Outed a Killer: How Heather's Case Broke Open
    2026/08/05
    The Coffee Cup That Outed a Killer: How Heather's Case Broke Open

    A single upright paper coffee cup, lid snapped and undamaged, sat eighteen inches from a frozen body buried under six months of winter - a detail logged for thirty-one years before its meaning was understood. That cup held a full DNA profile that matched no one in 2003, but it posed one question no one could ignore: who placed it there after the snow fell?

    In this episode, we follow the timeline from Heather Stewart’s routine Tuesday night run for coffee to the discovery of her body on Route 7 six months later. We trace the evidence chain from the Sunoco cup logged as Item 14-C to the lab that extracted a complete DNA profile, asking how a discarded cup became the key link in a case that stalled for decades.

    Person: Heather Stewart
    Date: August 14, 2002
    Location: Route 7 roadside berm
    Status: Body discovered February 9, 2003; time of death estimated late summer 2002
    Item: 16-ounce paper coffee cup (Item 14-C) with viable DNA

    - Heather Stewart was 22 years old when she disappeared after leaving class around 9:00 PM on August 14, 2002.
    - Heather’s routine: stop at Sunoco on Route 7 at approximately 9:15 PM, buy a large self-serve coffee, and be home by 9:40 PM.
    - Heather’s car was found on August 16, 2002 at a gravel pull-off on Route 7, about three miles west of the Sunoco, with purse and wallet intact and engine cold.
    - The body was found on February 9, 2003, partially wrapped in dark plastic sheeting and frozen solid, with estimated time of death in late summer 2002.
    - The coffee cup found 18 inches from Heather’s left shoulder produced a complete DNA profile in 2003 that returned no matches in available databases.
