In July 2008, tragedy struck in a parking lot when a well-liked teacher and mother of three, Genai Coleman, was shot and killed during a carjacking. The attack was cold, calculated, and completely senseless. Police immediately launched an intensive search for the person responsible. Before long, the evidence seemed to point clearly in one direction, towards a man who perfectly matched the description given by witnesses and seen on security footage. Investigators even confirmed that his DNA had been found inside Genai’s car. But as the case unfolded, it became clear that something was terribly wrong. The police had the right DNA profile, but they had somehow arrested the wrong man.

In April 2007, two German police officers were found shot in their patrol car in the city of Heilbronn. When forensic investigators examined the crime scene, they were surprised to discover a female DNA profile that also matched traces found at a number of other unsolved crimes. The same genetic evidence had been identified at burglaries, thefts and several murders, in total around forty different crime scenes across Germany, Austria and France between 1993 and 2009. It appeared as though the same woman was moving seamlessly across Europe, leaving behind death and confusion, yet without ever being seen. She became known as “The Phantom of Heilbronn”, and the hunt for this mysterious figure would go on to become one of the most extensive and widely discussed police investigations in German history.

The MacDonald family seemed to have it all: young, beautiful, and successful. Colette and Jeffrey, with their two little daughters. Jeffrey was thriving in his career, and they had big plans for the future. But all of that ended on the night of February 17, 1970, when three members of the family were brutally murdered. The question people asked then, and still ask today, is this: Was the fourth member of the MacDonald family truly a victim of this horrific event, or was there something darker hidden behind that perfect facade?
