I know I am missing several, but I am hesitant to look through "1996" on the Wiki page because that means seeing the one case that scares me the most and I don't want to see that photo. Please post the cases and dates they occurred (not aired) and I will add them to the list.

There's a fairly recent podcast series called Your Own Backyard that revisits the Kristin Smart case. It's pretty good if anyone's into that sort of thing.

Also, Slow Burn did a season on the Tupac/Biggie Smalls rivalry.
