The Lisa Ziegert Case: How DNA Solved a 25-Year Cold Case
In 1992, Lisa Ziegert disappeared while working alone at a card shop in Agawam, Massachusetts. When coworkers arrived the next morning, they found the store abandoned, her purse still behind the counter, and clear signs of a violent struggle. Four days later, Lisa's body was discovered, but despite recovering DNA, investigators had no way to identify her killer. For more than two decades, detectives pursued thousands of leads while one suspect repeatedly drew their attention. As forensic science advanced, the evidence pointed back to the same man investigators had questioned for years. In this episode of True Crime Recaps, we examine the disappearance of Lisa Ziegert, the decades-long investigation, and how DNA technology, persistence, and a confession finally solved one of Massachusetts' most haunting cold cases.
