After the discovery of 16-year-old Jeannette DePalma’s body in a New Jersey quarry, investigators were left with more questions than answers. With no clear cause of death and a crime scene that some believed pointed to something ritualistic, rumors of the occult quickly took hold and began to shape both public fear and the direction of the case. In Part 2 of Murder: True Crime Stories, Carter Roy examines how speculation and early theories may have derailed the investigation, the suspects who emerged as detectives searched for answers, and the possible connections to other murders in the area. As the case grew more complex, one man came under increasing scrutiny, but proving his involvement would be far more difficult. Decades later, Jeannette’s murder remains unsolved, and the truth of what happened to her is still out of reach.
