Ep 12. Three Generations Gone

In Cold Justice season 6 episode 12, titled "Three Generations Gone," former prosecutor Kelly Siegler and seasoned homicide investigator Steve Spingola head to Jasper, Texas to assist local law enforcement with a triple homicide case that took place over a decade ago.

The case involves the brutal murders of three generations of women from the same family: 84-year-old Goldia Johnson, her daughter 62-year-old Karen Johnson, and Karen's daughter 17-year-old Samantha Money. The women were found beaten to death in their home in November of 2005, and despite some initial leads, the case eventually went cold.

Siegler and Spingola arrive in Jasper and begin their investigation by interviewing family members and friends of the victims, as well as local law enforcement who worked on the case in its early stages. They also dig through boxes of evidence that have been stored away, looking for any overlooked clues that could lead to a breakthrough.

As they begin to piece together the events leading up to the murders, they discover a number of potential suspects - including those with a possible motive of robbery, as well as those with personal connections to the victims. However, with no physical evidence to link any of them definitively to the crime, Siegler and Spingola find themselves stymied.

Despite the lack of physical evidence, they continue to push forward, and soon their persistence pays off. Through tireless digging and interviewing, they begin to uncover new information that ultimately leads them to the person responsible for the brutal murders.

Throughout the investigation, Siegler and Spingola not only work to solve the case, but also provide emotional support for the family members left behind. The murders have left a lasting impact on the small town of Jasper, and the investigators feel a deep responsibility to bring closure to the community.

In the end, "Three Generations Gone" is a gripping episode of Cold Justice that showcases the tireless and meticulous work that goes into investigating unsolved crimes. The case is particularly heart-wrenching due to the fact that an entire family was wiped out in such a brutal manner, and Siegler and Spingola's dedication to finding justice for them is truly inspiring.
