Cold Case Files

REOPENED: The Barrel

A Long Island man is preparing to sell his house when he discovers a 55-gallon barrel hidden in his crawlspace. It has seemingly been there for decades - at least for as long as he's owned the home. But when he pries off the lid, he quickly realizes that it isn't just a barrel... it's a tomb. Sponsors: Hydrow: Join the growing, rowing community at Hydrow.

Based on the iconic, Emmy-nominated series on A&amp;E, this show explores some of the most difficult-to-solve murders, which stymied investigators and went cold, sometimes for decades. In fact, one-third of all murders in America remain open. But thanks to dogged investigators and breakthroughs in forensic technology, these cases become part of the rare 1% of cold cases that are ever solved. Cold Case Files is hosted by Paula Barros.
