Paroubek is intriguing and, even living in Illinois, I hadn't heard much about the case until around the 100th anniversary.
I voted for other. The case that intrigues me and baffles me the most is the Lane Bryant Shooting from 2008. This happened on a Saturday morning in a busy shopping center and the killer went basically undetected after spending over a half an hour in the store. This case gets very little press coverage for a crime in which 5 women were murdered and a sixth victim was lucky to survive. Knowing the identity of this killer is on my bucket list.
I often wonder why the Lane Bryant shooting does not get more press or attention. Such a grisly crime that seems solvable if more people knew about it.....a pretty good sketch of the shooter exists, as does a recording of his voice. Someone HAS to know who he is. I think there is definitely more to these murders than a simple robbery gone bad. Hopefully, someday we will know.
One more vote for another. My vote would go to one of two Australian cases (I am not an Aussie!). Either the Tamam Shud case or the Beaumont children case. Tamam Shud gets a bonus for the fact that no one even knows the cause of death and, even though some links are clear to individuals, the identity of the dead man remains unknown. The Beaumont case is a classic tragic mystery with lots of suggestions but none which appears better than others. The Beaumont case is further complicated by the murky politics of a corrupt local government.

I can't find a thread for Shirley Collins, I've just read up on it elsewhere, never heard of her case before.
Sheppard is pretty famous...not Elizabeth Short famous, but still..
Thirty years ago, I knew about Sheppard but I hadn't heard of Dahlia yet.
