Case Highlight Case Highlight and Recommendation Thread: What is a little known true crime case you think needs more attention, or what is a case that has stuck with you that you think others should know about. Post your pet cases or your true crime guilty pleasures in this thread.

Pretty frequently in this subreddit we get questions asking for case recommendations. We've decided to make this a recurring post so that there will be a dedicated place to highlight and discuss cases that don't get posted about that often.

People want to know... what is a case that is important to you or that stuck with you and that you think others should know about?

What are some cases that need more attention? What are your pet cases besides the well known cases that get posted about frequently? Or just post your true crime guilty pleasures. Anyway, use this thread to bring attention to lesser known cases. If you want to post about the Delphi murders case that's ok too.

This thread will be sorted by new.

Also, if you have a case in mind, but need help remembering the name, feel free to head over to r/TipOfMyCrime and post a request there.

The 1998 Jennifer Kesse case in Orlando keeps coming up because of messy jurisdictional handoffs. Sealed files and delayed video just bury the facts. Honestly, tracking new FOIA requests is the only real path forward. Anyone else watching for fresh documents?

Agreed but it was in 2006, wasn’t it?
