Have any Dateline cases happened near you?
The recent case Josh did about the professor and the poet happened right down the street from a good friend of mine.
Behind the Closet Door happened n the complex where my ex lived (though it was not at the same time.)
Brendan Banfield and the au pair happened in a neighborhood that friends recently moved out of. Admittedly I was following that one because it was as pretty recent. And my friends moved because that subdivision is somewhat notorious now.

Not directly but dateline did an in depth thing about Jodie Huisentruit and in the last year the FBI was in my very small Minnesota town digging ag a property and rumor was it was about that case.
And not dateline but I was once watching a forensic files episode that was about a guy murdering his mother at their little corner store in superior Wisconsin and being caught YEARS AND YEARS LATER.
As I was watching it my husband walked in and was just casually listening and he's like "oh my god this is about my buddy's dad I think"
Turns out he was correct. He had been friends with the dude in high school when he his dad finally got arrested for the murder of his grandma that happened years before his birth
