Sodder children disappearance, a perplexing case from Christmas Eve 1945 where five siblings vanished after their Fayetteville, West Virginia home was consumed by fire. While initial investigations concluded the children perished in the blaze, the Sodder family harbored lifelong suspicions of foul play, citing numerous inconsistencies like a cut phone line, the failure of their trucks to start, and the absence of remains. Despite efforts from private investigators, the FBI, and the family's persistent public campaigns, including a billboard offering a reward, the fate of the children remains unknown, leaving a lasting cold case that continues to fascinate and prompt new theories.
