26. The Barrel Murders (Bear Brook State Park, New Hampshire)
When multiple bodies are found in a barrel in a rural area of New Hampshire, everyone is shocked. When it happens again 15 years later, investigators know immediately these victims were connected to the first barrel found. This investigation spanned 34 years and is still ongoing. This case has web sleuths, a serial killer, and was the first case in which genetic genealogy was used to identify a crime suspect, a method which would later be used to solve several high-profile cold cases such as the Golden State Killer case.
