The Black Box

Andrea Canning talks with Keith Morrison about his episode, “Raising the Dead.” After a couple was found stabbed to death inside a Wisconsin farmhouse, investigators spent decades chasing down possible suspects with no luck.

They also play an extra clip from his conversation with investigators, and Justin answers your questions from social media.Have a question for Talking Dateline?
