In the quiet, free-spirited mountain community of Jamestown, Colorado, peace shattered one Saturday morning. A frantic 911 call described a harrowing scene: 30-year-old Solange Haikkala, a beloved mother, discovered cold and unresponsive on a couch in her artist's studio, her face smeared with blood. The studio itself was described as "completely ransacked," hinting at a violent struggle, leaving detectives to wonder how such a brutal crime could unfold in a town where crime was a rarity. As investigators go through into the "sea of evidence" on Solange's body – from puzzling bruises to the chilling detail of her being found naked from the waist down – they confront a mystery that challenges the very veneer of their peaceful mountain home. Every fiber, every wound, becomes a piece of a dark puzzle – a story only the medical examiner can begin to unlock and bring justice to Solange.----------------------------------------------------------Don't forget to subscribe to the Casefile Confidential podcast, at least one new chilling episode every week---------------------------------------------------------- Visit tonysale.com for original case files, in-depth articles on unsolved and forgotten crimes, and a collection of books that dig deep into the world’s darkest chapters.
