    1. The 1931 murder of Julia Wallace (Liverpool): a phone call sends her husband across the city to an address that does not exist. He comes home to find her beaten to death. He is convicted, then freed in a landmark appeal. Did he build the perfect alibi, or was he set up?
    2. Elizabeth Bain disappeared in Scarborough in 1990. Her boyfriend served 8 years for her murder and then was found not guilty. 35 years later, no one has ever been charged. Here's what the case file shows.
    3. The murders of Miriam, Toñi and Desirée in Alcàsser, Spain in 1992. One killer is still free. DNA from seven unknown people was found at the scene. A media circus swallowed the truth whole. And thirty-four years later, the full picture still isn't clear.
