#50 - For nearly 80 years, the world has known her as the Black Dahlia. But before she became one of America's most infamous unsolved murder victims, she was a 22-year-old woman named Elizabeth Short.

In January 1947, Elizabeth's brutally mutilated body was discovered in a vacant Los Angeles lot, launching one of the largest murder investigations in American history. The shocking crime captivated the nation, inspired decades of speculation, and led to hundreds of suspects, false confessions, and countless theories—but no one has ever been convicted.

In this episode of Find My Killer, we retrace Elizabeth's final days, examine the chilling crime scene, explore the investigation that quickly spiraled into a media frenzy, and take a closer look at the most compelling suspects in a case that continues to haunt investigators nearly eight decades later.

Who killed Elizabeth Short? And after all these years, are we any closer to the truth?
