On December 6, 2007, the fire department in Troup County Georgia was called to a rural county road after two bags were found on fire.

Extinguishing the blaze, firefighters find dismembered human remains inside the bags. The body had been cut into 13 pieces, and the head, hands and feet, were all missing.

Investigators failed to identify the body at the time, but did not give up.

Joseph Scott Morgan and Dave Mack go over the evidence found in the bags and how it was used, 18-years later, to identify the woman....and open a case that leads to murder, stolen identity, and fraud.

2007 Cold Case: Body Parts Found Burning, Head/Hands/Feet Missing! Solved 2026! Death of Nicole Alston

It was a hot summer day on July 24, 1996, when 7-year-old Morgan Violi went outside to play with a friend at the Shive Lane apartment complex where she lived with her mom and two sisters in Bowling Green, Kentucky. A man driving an older-model, maroon Chevrolet van pulled up alongside the girls, jumped out and tried to grab the girl Morgan was playing with but was unsuccessful, so, he snatched Morgan, threw her into the van and sped away. The van was stolen out of Dayton, Ohio, and was recovered two days later in Franklin, Tennessee, 30 miles south of Nashville. The van was scrubbed clean.  The search for Morgan lasted until October 26, 1996, when her skeletal remains were found in the woods off I-65 in White House, Tennessee, 30 miles north of Nashville.  A suspect was never located, and the case went cold for nearly 30 years. Joseph Scott Morgan and Dave Mack discuss the cold case kidnapping and murder of 7-year-old Morgan Violi and the forensic evidence that solved her case and led to a confession by the killer.
