The Cold Case Everyone Got Wrong

In August 1972, 16-year-old Jeannette DePalma disappeared without a trace after leaving her home in Springfield, New Jersey. Weeks later, her remains were discovered in a remote area known as Devil's Teeth. Almost immediately, newspapers began reporting rumors of satanic rituals, witchcraft and occult ceremonies. Those stories would shape public perception of the case for more than fifty years. But how much of that narrative was actually supported by the evidence? In this documentary, we examine the disappearance of Jeannette DePalma through original reporting, historical records, modern research and recently released investigative material to separate documented facts from decades of speculation.
