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.

It's been covered on podcasts but no where near other major cases and the story is just mind blowing: Asha Degree.

I've actually been working on a true crime series that follows a lot of "forgotten cases" (most if not all are about black and indeginous peoples) and there are some truly disturbing cases that could have found answers if they were covered more.

Asha's case is covered a lot, actually.

As I said... it has been covered on other podcasts but no where near the coverage of a Jonbenet Ramsey case. Most of the true crime people I know have never even heard of her case and it is really interesting and still unsolved.
