The Skeleton Crew: How Amateur Sleuths are Solving America's Coldest Cases by Deborah Halber

5.0

The Skeleton Crew by Deborah Hallber
This book is all about internet sleuths and arm chair detectives. It was an insight on how the Doe Network and Nameus got started where thousands of people could look at unidentified bodies and evidence then try to match with a missing person case.
In the book they cover a story about a young mother who was found deceased and bound in a tent like bag back in May 1968. Years go by with out her identity being discovered until Todd Mathews comes on the scene just an average joe who painstakingly uncovers who tent girl is.
For anyone who watches true crime, reads true crim this was a very fascinating look into a world I knew very little about.
