Interesting but uneventful

Interesting podcast about a sad story. Not particularly impressed by the journalists attempts to solve the mystery though. It will never be enough finding old newspaper articles... the police surely had this info 50 years ago and couldn’t solve it.
Why not look into what happened to the people in the area over the last 50 years. I don’t believe someone commits an act like that and then goes on to live a perfectly normal life...
