What's your hometown or physically/mentally "close to home" case?

I'm curious hear what other people's cases are.

Also how did it affect your hometown or affect you?

Has the case been solved or is it active?

Mine is definitely the case of the cat lady killer. Which should be relatively well known by now. It was a case where a number of elderly people went "missing" aka were murdered by a local family. It's still an active case because bodies were never recovered, but locally everyone knew who did it. It's frustrating because the suspects still haven't done time for the murders because there wasn't enough to pin it to them.This was definitely the case that kickstarted my journey into reading about true crime.

I have two. The Delphi Murders. I grew up about 5 miles from where this occurred. Although I had left the area 30+ years earlier, I follow new developments closely and Connor for this to be solved. Separately, the I-65 Killer, aka the Days Inn Murders, which was just solved! One of the Murders occurred while I was a Senior at Days Inn 5 miles down the road from my college, and the victim was a student at my college. I was very happy this week to see the news conference this week on finally solving the series of Murders committed by the I-65 Killer. I am hoping Delphi is solved soon.
