Barbara Beach Hamburg // 289

In March of 2010, a 48-year-old woman was found murdered in the backyard of her Connecticut home. With her murder appearing personal, police wondered if someone in her inner circle could have been behind it. But as years passed and justice didn’t come, her son took the investigation into his own hands. This is the murder of Barbara Beach-Hamburg.
