Evidence Kept Showing Up In Strange Places... #truecrimeshorts #truecrimestories #crimejunkies | Forensic Files

Hi Crime Junkies, I'm your host Ashley Flowers. >> And I'm Brit. >> And you guys, there is a case out of
Louisville, Kentucky that I bet you've never heard of. About a woman that you've probably never heard of.
But I don't know why. Because it's one of the most mysterious cases I've come across. A call in the middle of the
night lures a woman out of her home and hours later her body is found floating in a nearby river.
The list of suspects is a mile long and evidence keeps showing up all over town.
Sometimes in suspiciously planted ways. Yet, for 60 years this case has remained
unsolved. Our investigation set out to ask the question, why? And the possibilities will surprise you.
Maybe it's because evidence in the case mysteriously disappeared. It could be because some investigators on the case
had ulterior motives. Or it could be because the very foundation that this story was built on might be a lie.
This is the story of a woman you should know about. A passionate attorney who made strides at the height of the Civil
Rights Movement. A woman who was brutally murdered before she could break even more barriers.
This is the story of Alberta O. Jones.

A late-night phone call brought Alberta O. Jones out of her home in Louisville, Kentucky. Hours later, the pioneering attorney and civil rights advocate was found dead in the Ohio River.

As investigators searched for answers, evidence appeared across the city, suspects emerged, and critical questions about the investigation began to grow.
