Chicago PD Launch Video Series to Help Solve Cold Cases | Officer
''A woman was left dead in a West Side alley with her two youngest children huddled next to her on Dec. 30, 1976. Another mother and her 7-year-old child died on July 2, 1981, after being strangled in their West Side apartment.
They are two of the Chicago Police Department’s hundreds of cold cases, and the first to be featured in a new series the department is launching in an attempt to find answers and closure.
Starting Monday, CPD will begin releasing an in-house produced series on its social media channel. The first two episodes — featuring the homicide of Elizabeth Dunlap and the double homicide of Lizzie and Lucretia Lee — are around 8 minutes long and include emotional interviews with the then-children who were left behind.''
''Starting the series with two Black women who were mothers on the West Side was purposeful to highlight violence against women, Brown said.
In the video about Elizabeth Dunlap, her daughter Tara King Dunlap describes how she remembers being 4 years old in the car of a strange man who had offered her mother and her little sister a ride, and her mother telling him multiple times, “You’re going the wrong way” before he pulled over and took her mother out the car.
Tara said she later learned what he had done to her mother before he took her and her sister out of the car, taking their shoes, socks, coat, hat and gloves, and leaving them on either side of their motionless mother lying on the snowy ground.''
