    The Murders of Barry and Dena Pinto
    Sep 24 2024
    1983 - Plymouth, Massachusetts. On a cold night in February 1983, Barry Pinto, 26, and his wife, Dena, 24, were brutally shot in their own home, while their infant son sat helpless in a nearby playpen. The crime scene hinted that the couple might have known their killer, yet investigators struggled to uncover a clear motive. Forty years later, the Pinto family is still haunted by unanswered questions, unable to shake the feeling that someone in the small coastal community is holding back the truth.

    The Strange Case of Lancelot Cooper
    Sep 10 2024
    1951 - Brunswick, Maine. Police heard the woman’s screams before they even reached the door. They were responding to a late night break-in at the apartment of 56-year-old Lancelot Cooper, a prominent figure in the community. When they stepped inside, they found his wife, 45-year-old Eva Cooper, nude on the living room floor with a scarf over her head and her hands bound behind her back. Inside the bedroom, they found a bloody and violent scene. It was clear from the attack that somebody wanted Lance dead, and as the details of that frigid January night became clearer to police, an obvious suspect emerged into focus.

    Sonya Moore: Cold Case in New Hampshire
    Aug 27 2024
    1989 - Dunbarton, New Hampshire. In November of 1989, 14-year-old Sonya Moore disappeared. At first, her mother thought it was typical Sonya behavior. After all, the teenager had a habit of staying out late and skipping school. But when Sonya missed an important appointment, the pit in her stomach began to grow. Despite her daughter’s independence, she always knew where Sonya was. As days turned into weeks, Sonya’s friends held onto the hope that she was somewhere warm, chasing her dream of becoming a model. But deep down, they knew something was wrong. Sonya wouldn’t just vanish without telling someone. Then, in the spring, a badly decomposed body was discovered in Stark Pond. The girl was wearing an arrowhead necklace and a Hampton Beach shirt—just like the ones Sonya Moore was last seen wearing. If you have any information about the murder of Sonya Moore, please contact the NH Cold Case Unit at (603) 271-2663 or email coldcaseunit@dos.nh.gov.

    The Tragic Murder of Henry Bedard
    Aug 13 2024
    1974 - Swampscott, Massachusetts. In the shadows of the early-December afternoon, somebody with a baseball bat beat the life out of 15-year-old Henry Bedard Jr. He had been on his way home to wrap a Christmas gift, and was found the following day in a well-travelled patch of woods that was popular amongst the town’s youth. Henry was a good kid from a good family, who, to this day, still can’t understand why somebody would have done this.
