Murder
The Fishwarp did a story about the brutal slaying of a young family in the Cincinnati area back in 1966. The crime went unsolved and the Ohio Attorney General is publicizing the case again hoping for leads.
The investigation of the slaying of the Bricca family is documented in the book, Queen City Gothic by J. Townsend. I wrote about the book here. While I'm not thrilled with the book, it's one of those things where, the more you learn - the more you want to know. Townsend has a lot of interesting details the cold sketch in the Fishwarp omits. While any leads might seem impossible so many years after the act, one of the chapters in Townsend's book told of people investigating a murder being anonymously threatened decades later.
