On Friday, July 13, 1990, the body of 32-year-old Barbara George was found in the backroom of her comic book store in Clinton Township, Michigan. Initially, when she was found, it appeared that she had maybe suffered a heart attack or was fatally injured somehow. However, when she was transported to the hospital, a nurse found a bullet wound on her head that had been hidden by her thick hair. Unfortunately, due to lack of physical evidence and very little clues, Barbara’s murder was left unsolved until the cold case unit reopened it in 2007. The cold case unit found a report made by a witness in 1990 who said that Barbara’s husband wasn’t where he said he was—and this was the missing part of the puzzle the police needed to solve Barbara’s murder. Police soon tracked down her husband in Pennsylvania, married to a woman he was having an affair within 1990. Listen now to Episode 39 to find out how this cold case was eventually solved.
