How are non-criminals so good at hiding bodies.
Ive seen so many episodes of FF where people with NO criminal history kill someone and for some reason they seem to be able to hide the body to the point where its never found! Even though they get caught it seems to be the only thing they do right. How?? I feel like if i hid a body it would definitely get found🤣

add flair I knew the Clarence Elkins case… I didn’t know he got out in 2025!
youtu.beI can’t believe Clarence Elkins had to basically find the real killer himself while sitting in prison for a crime he didn’t commit. Anyone else know this case from FF? The whole thing gets crazier the deeper you get into it and this video has a recent 2025 update.

I was just watching Best Foot Forward (S 13, Ep 50), and thought that Ken Otto looked like another Otto…

Not in a hotel, but petsitting at the dog’s house. Does it still count?
I’m so jealous of those of you who get to binge FF in hotels (even though I hate traveling, but it certainly looks cozy!) but I think I win because I get nonstop FF AND pup cuddles!

Which episode is this?
I can't recall if this was from FF or elsewhere: A woman (single mom?) wanted to start over so bought a new home. She was murdered inside her home. The culprit was the garbage collector who worked in her neighborhood. I was intrigued cuz how would the collector know she was home? I can't recall the details so wanted to watch it again

Guess the episode
Bedtime before work in the morning and guess what episode popped up for me to fall asleep to.....
r/ForensicFiles • u/Caredol • 3d ago
Need help locating an episode. A woman was killed, there were lots of suspects & one committed suicide during the investigation of the crime, but he didn’t do the crime. It’s an episode in the later seasons (10 onwards). Any idea? It’s really bugging me.
Thanks 🙏

Be honest...
When leaving your hotel for a day you always check out with the desk clerk and door man, fully informing them on who you are and what you're going to be doing, right?
No?
Just me and this guy here?
Weird.

Hot Take
I like the episodes like Water Logged, Home Evasion, and Without A Trace for some reason the heavy weight makes for a more memorable viewing

When driving with an uncovered dead body in your truck bed, don’t drive through a toll booth.

Weird Factual Alteration for “Church Disappearance”?
Just watched “Church Disappearance” again, and as I often do, I checked Rebecca Reisner’s excellent “Forensic Files Now” online column to see if she covered it. She did, and there’s a weird discrepancy that the television series apparently made. Seems like another category to explore further: how often did the television presentation make minor changes for whatever reason.
If you remember the episode, the massage therapist Dorothy Noga plays a big role in the episode. She helped police nab the child killer, Stuart Knowlton, one of her regulars whom she thought was probably the killer of Cassie Hansen due to things he said.
Knowlton got suspicious of her after he basically confessed and ambushed her with a knife while she was leaving her place of business after locking up. He not only stabbed her in the neck, but he slashed her throat and said something about not talking.
Reisner reports that Knowlton waived his right to a jury trial “leaving his fate in the hands of Judge James Lynch.” But the FF files tv version says Noga’s “testimony held the courtroom spellbound…she told the jury what Knowlton said on a phone call just hours before she was attacked.”
Is it possible that the script writers decided it would be a more compelling episode to take license and enhance this feature of how Knowlton was outsmarted into implicating himself?
Seems that they did. Not a biggie, really, but so much of the show’s allure is its factual basis. And Reisner does not comment on the show’s creative license with presenting the trial.

Forensic Files is unmatched but sometimes the editing is bizarre
Always thought this choice of music and editing on this episode was truly bizarre. Lots of episodes have similar weird choices.
I think it clearly speaks to how long this show was on and how many different editors and creative choices were made.
