EP. # 1335 Black Dahlia SOLVED? The Kansas City Cover-Up & The Killer Hiding in Plain Sight

In 1947, Elizabeth Short was found brutally murdered—her body severed, her name erased, replaced forever by “The Black Dahlia.” For nearly 80 years, the case has remained unsolved… or has it? Author Eli Frankel believes the mystery is built on a fatal misunderstanding—one that begins not in Hollywood, but in Kansas City, with a second victim and a killer hiding in plain sight.

GUEST: Eli Frankel is a Hollywood producer, investigative researcher, and author of Sisters in Death. After years combing through original case files, witness statements, and overlooked connections, Frankel has constructed a bold, evidence-driven theory linking the Black Dahlia murder to an earlier killing—identifying a single suspect he believes got away with murder twice.
