How about a killer that seems to brainwash all of it's victims but disappears every six years. The squad soon realizes that the case steams from th 40's to the mid 70's. It's a family of killers but they don't leave a single clue behind except a phone call that can't be tracked.
An old case about a Blind Woman falling in love with a cuban man during the mid 40's. She is found dead but with all suspects turning now up alive the case gets deeper with more clues that don't add up.

I think that would be an excellent story for CC, boxman. There's a lot of material for the writers to work with here. I've always wondered about the interesting and incriminating things that people must find when they go digging into old family boxes and secrets. There was an episode of Medium last night that featured an old fallout shelter on a property occupied by a new family in the present. Long story short, the fallout shelter had been used in 1998 as a holding cell for kidnapped girls (who were subsequently murdered). It was chilling, and it made me think about this very topic. I imagine the CC writing staff could do a great job with these sort of hidden family documents, etc.

Stories like that always give me the creeps! |

That sounds like an interesting idea Boxman, what with the books and magazines and stuff.

I saw a movie preview for "The Bank Job" and it got me thinking about this idea again, boxman. What about safety deposit boxes? There's no telling what sort of long-buried family secrets hide in those!

How about, there is a double homicide back in 2003, of two parents of a lovely, lovely girl that is now orphaned and no one wants her. After solving the case, Lilly adopts the girl. And, btw, since I am such a good actress, maybe I should play the part, I'd be perfect!!  hehe, and if it isn't played by me, forget the whole Idea...  |

How about a case from 1941 but it spans from 1950,1969, and 1974. Then a recent murder connects everything to a family of killers but it's a woman not a man. In the mixed of this it's a love story about how this man gave a woman related to this family a pearl necklace how in each murder the necklace is missing. That isn't the whole story there's a diary but nobody knows who wrote it. The suspecs are myserious but in the end is a big twist.
A 1953 case about a Korean war soldier coming home to find his girlfriend has gone missing but in the present day her body turns up only to discover that it isn't her body. Now the team has to travel to several states, in which takes the squad back to the early fifties.

In 1998, a middle aged couple, on their way to a family gathering, vanished into thin air.
Ten years later, the bodies are found. What happened to them?
End song - Fastball's 'The Way'.
A young college student's suicide in 2005 may have actually been murder, instead.
The murder of a gay couple was filed as hate crime in 2002. But a recording shows it clearly isn't so...

This was from page 1 but I just had to respond: I'm all for it, only if I can play the other girl. ;D Yes, you can watch. On TV like everyone else.  For real though, I'd like to see an ep based on this guy: www.crimezzz.net/serialkillers/S/STEPHANI_paul_michael.phpPaul Stephani, the "Weepy-voiced killer." I saw an episode of Cold Case Files about him, and it was totally creepy. This dude would find these young, innocent women, pretend to befriend them for a minute and then of course, kill them. He then would call the cops on himself, talking in a high-pitched "weepy" voice. (You totally had to see the show and hear these tapes to even get an idea of just how creepy and weird it was). One chick fought back and lived, and he had to get medical attention so they figured him out from his injuries. (This was after they had a lead on him, and had him tracked but lost him. Prior to that, the cases were cold for years). Also, I'm pretty sure the way they got his name in the first place was that his own sister heard the recording of his voice released by the media and told the cops. I think it would make a really interesting ep, if only just to see who they would cast as Stephani. What a freak. |

It'd be interesting imo if they did an episode centered around a self mutilators. They could place it as a suicide (because it would look like one), but then someone comes in with some evidence that it wasn't.

Sorry, I'm really new to both "Cold Case" and the "Look Again" forum, but I thought of this, bounced off a suggestion from one of the earlier posters about false flashbacks - how about one about an obsessive group of (perhaps?) medical students or trainee doctors, that back in the 1980s (so they would only be in their forties at the time of the episode) were killing people in their care, but leading Lilly and the team in circles because of planting so many inventive, supposed "causes of death" that it becomes near-impossible for the team to tell a distinct motive (as all the cases appear to not be connected to one another) or even establish a cause of death. Misleading flashbacks are then incorporated when it is shown perhaps the different motives etc. before they finally unravel what really happened. Also, each of the doctors - now fully trained - lead Lilly and Scotty into a series of more and more elaborate mind games. It's not very refined, but I hope no-one minds my input!

Welcome to the board claire94.
Of course we don't mind your input. The whole point of this thread to come up with ideas. They don't have to be refined. Misleading flashbacks is not something we've seen on CC.
Hopefully you will come back and share your thoughts and ideas on other areas of the board.
If you have any questions, ask in the appropriate area or send a private message (PM) to one of the mods, who will be happy to help you out.

How about and all black and white episode set back in 1950 during the Korean war, but the same murders span from 1950-1978 and stopping until a more recent one happens. All the victims are wearing the same necklace. Every suspect that the squad interviews isn't the killer but there is no personal stuff with the detectives strickly case, which Lilly opens and becomes so obbessed like she was in S1. Episode turns into a two hour one keeping us viewers on the edge of out seats for awhile, until a hostage situation takes place outside of Philly but the real killer is after Scotty not Lilly.

I have an idea for another type of episode that I would like to see Cold Case do. I recently discovered that one of my favorite magazines has it's main HQ in Philly. (by the way said magazine specializes in extreme music. Heavy metal, hard rock, etc.)
It would be interesting if there was an episode in which a reviewer for a fictional (in our world) magazine was killed, and they believed that he was killed for a review he wrote.
Let me add more to this little scenario. In the scenario there would be an up and coming band who's about to make it big in that scene. They send their promo to this magazine, but instead of getting the praise they think they deserve the reviewer gives it very low score.
Now we could just assume that one of the members who can't take criticism well, kills this reviewer. But, then again, maybe not.
Maybe it'd be someone else.

How about an episode reguarding a Cuban man arriving in American showing the hardships he had to face in 1940 but falls in love but is killed on his wedding night. Could have this case centered around Scotty.

Hi, new to the boards.
How about an episode where a cold case (a murder) is followed through the eyes of the victim, not through the eyes of the witnesses, and every flashback is something that the victim remembers. Perhaps the victim is a ghost who hasn't found peace because he doesn't know what happened on the day or night of his death.
