The Disappearance & Murder of Maria Ridulph
Manage episode 455374246 series 3624133
In December 1957, seven-year-old Maria Ridulph vanished from her Sycamore, Illinois neighborhood while playing outside, sparking one of the nation's oldest cold cases. Despite initial suspects, the trail went cold until 2011, when new evidence led to the arrest of Jack McCullough (A.K.A. John Tessier), who was convicted in 2012. Yet, in a dramatic turn, McCullough's conviction was vacated in 2016 due to overlooked evidence, and he was released. The unresolved case of Maria Ridulph remains a haunting reminder of the complexities in seeking justice for long-standing mysteries.
