John Does from the Box Labeled "Old Cases"

In this episode we cracked open the box of 'old cases' and pulled out a few John Does.

First, we talk about the 4-6 year old Doe known as the "Boy in the Box." In 1957 this unidentified murder victim's battered body was found inside a bassinet box in the Fox Chase section of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It was determined the boy died of blunt force trauma. Investigators were puzzled because it appeared the boy had been abused and neglected but seemed well-groomed at the same time. Over the years this case garnered a lot of attention, but to this day the Boy in the Box remains unidentified - which has left us with some wild theories and ~*interesting*~ investigation tactics.

Then, we talk about a few more lesser known John Does and for once, we leave you with a happy ending... Kind of?
