Story

Hamilton County coroner Jeff Jellison launches a new investigation into Herb Baumeister decades after thousands of bones were found in the woods behind Fox Hollow Farms, Baumeister's stately home. Using new DNA technology, Jellison and his team work to identify the human remains, bringing long-deferred closure to victims' families and unearthing unsettling questions about potential accomplices, missing evidence, and a key witness whose story keeps changing.
