UNSOLVED: Cindy James, Pt. 2

In Part 2 of Murder: True Crime Stories, host Carter Roy follows the two-week search for Cindy James and the autopsy that turned her case inside out. Her body was found on June 8th, 1989, behind an abandoned house three-quarters of a mile from her car, hands and feet bound behind her back with a black nylon stocking and another wound around her neck. She had no injuries at all, no bruising under any of the ligatures, and nothing around her suggested a struggle. Then the toxicology came back: two sedatives she had never been prescribed, dozens of capsules of one alone, and morphine at more than five times a lethal dose that has never been explained. At the inquest, a knot specialist tied his own neck, wrists and ankles in under three minutes, and the coroner's own psychiatrist testified he saw nothing in the evidence to suggest she had done this to herself. The jury chose neither suicide nor homicide, and because no police force can close an unknown event, Cindy James's file has never been closed. Please note, this episode contains discussion of suicide and may not be suitable for all audiences.Head over to our YouTube channel to WATCH our video episodes: https://www.youtube.com/@crimehousestudios If you’re new here, don’t forget to follow Murder: True Crime Stories to never miss a case!
