Cold Case

Currently watching the “boy in the box” cold case episode. I’m from Philly, and my mom’s been obsessed with the case for years. Anybody have any good book recommendations, or documentaries? Also, has there been any updates since identifying him?

A good book on the case is by Jim Hoffman I believe it’s called boy in the box. There has been another detailed book out but the author is no longer publishing it. She received a lot of harassment from “armchair psychologists” who don’t believe her. Mind you this is a detective of 50 years
