An 87-year-old widow vanishes from her quiet retirement community without a trace. Days later, her car is discovered abandoned with a horrifying secret hidden inside the trunk.
Barbara How was a beloved mother, grandmother and longtime resident who appeared to have disappeared into thin air. But when forensic investigators begin examining her body, every injury, every fiber and every drop of blood reveals a chilling story of calculated violence. The killer meticulously cleaned the crime scene with bleach, scattered vacuum debris over the victim and attempted to erase every trace of forensic evidence.
As detectives uncover hidden blood beneath Barbara's home, a missing diamond ring, mysterious phone calls and a disturbing connection to the retirement community, the investigation takes a terrifying turn. Was this the work of a serial killer in the making?
With DNA evidence, surveillance footage and painstaking forensic analysis, investigators slowly unravel one of Ohio's most shocking murder cases—proving that even the most carefully planned crime can leave behind one critical mistake.
Secrets of the Morgue reveals how forensic pathology, relentless detective work and years of persistence finally brought Barbara How's killer to justice.
