I need help finding the title of an old HBO documentary show that featured true unsolved crimes. The only one I remember distinctly was the Hall-Mills murder. It possibly also featured the Lindbergh kidnapping, Lizzie Borden, and the D.B. Cooper hijacking, but I may be confusing this show with something else. It used photos and little animations to illustrate the crimes. I'm pretty sure the show would have aired in the early 1980's.

Thanks for all help!!

I remember the show too, but not the name. I remember the Lindbergh episode. There was such a lynch mob mentality at the time that the guy who fried for it probably didn't do it. Several prosecuters and D.A. said the evidence wasn't even enough to bring charges against the guy today.

I remember seeing these shows as well and I think there was one on the Hindenburg too (Ship of Doom - HBO Flashback?). I usually think of the HBO show (early '80s) when I hear about D.B. Cooper in the news.

Flashback could be right, but my memory is not what it used to be. Hopefully there's some nut out there who's compiled info on every HBO show there ever was and it's just up to me to find him. Otherwise this is gonna drive me crazy. Thanks for the (possible) answer!
