Frozen in Time
In 1935, the body of seven-year-old Richard Streicher Jr. was found beneath a footbridge in Ypsilanti, Michigan—cleaned, staged, and partially frozen. His murder shocked the town, but within months, the case went cold. Nearly a century later, it remains unsolved.
In this episode, we revisit the quiet snowfall of that March afternoon, the frantic search that followed, and the uneasy details that still don’t quite add up. Who placed Richard beneath that bridge? And why has no one ever been held accountable?
Some stories are meant to stay hidden.
But some find their way back.
