Who Killed the Princes in the Tower? Britain's Greatest Unsolved Mystery

Who really killed the princes in the Tower? More than 500 years later, historians still can't agree on the fate of Edward V and his younger brother, Richard, Duke of York. Following the death of King Edward IV in 1483, the two young heirs were placed in the Tower of London by their uncle, Richard III, and were never seen again.
