4 Cold Cases That Were CRACKED With Forensic Science

In this true crime episode, we unravel 4 horrifying cold cases finally solved after decades thanks to cutting-edge DNA technology and relentless detective work. First, we revisit the 1975 double homicide of 14-year-olds Darlene Zetterower and Barbara Schreiber in Hollywood, Florida. Abducted while hitchhiking, their brutal murders haunted investigators for nearly 50 years until advanced forensic testing linked violent offenders Robert Keebler and Larry Stein to the crime. Then, we shift to 1980s California, where the mysterious murders of Shannon Lloyd in 1987 and Renee Cuevas in 1989 went unsolved for decades. Through groundbreaking forensic genealogy, authorities identified serial predator Reuben Smith as the man behind both killings, unmasking a hidden trail of violence that spanned over a decade. If you're obsessed with solved cold cases, DNA breakthroughs, serial predator investigations, or forensic genealogy in true crime, this episode delivers it all. From unsolved mysteries to long-awaited justice, we explore the techniques that finally cracked these heartbreaking cases wide open.   👇 Support My Work: 🛍️ Merch: https://lazy-chill-zone-shop.fourthwall.com ❤️ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/lazychillzone   👇 Youtube links: Lazy Chill True Crime Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8dVJtzeHcJgd_Z0bHrJTHQ Lazy Chill History Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@LazyChillHistory Lazy Chill Zone Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@LazyChillZone   👇Social Media Links: https://www.instagram.com/lazychillzone/   👇 Podcast links: ⚡True Crime Podcast on Spotify⚡: https://open.spotify.com/show/0klIz08pAr7wR4we0Ia4sk?si=68qZxCeAQkysXzMZrHE0Iw   🍏 True Crime Podcast on Apple 🍎: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/lazy-chill-true-crime/id1815534472   True crime podcast, cold case murders, DNA breakthrough, solved cold case, forensic genealogy, serial predator, unsolved mysteries, murder investigation, justice delayed, Shannon Lloyd, Renee Cuevas, Darlene Zetterower, Barbara Schreiber, 1975 murders, 1987 murder, solved decades later, law enforcement podcast, true crime 2025, Spotify true crime, Apple Podcasts cold cases
