  • 182. “A Blended Family” - The Case of Sara Dixon - Burlington, North Carolina
    Sep 5 2024
    Vacuum marks, a brightly colored blanket, and Christmas tinsel. In November of 2007, 68-year-old, Sara Dixon was found shot to death inside her home in Burlington, North Carolina. From the moment investigators arrived at the home on McCray Road it appeared that the scene had been staged to look like a robbery gone wrong. While it appeared nothing of value had been taken, there were several clues left behind; Christmas tinsel stuck to the door, an empty picture hanger, and a footprint in the carpet. A year after Sara’s murder a man walked into the police station and gave investigators a small piece of information that unraveled the entire case. Sponsors: OneSkin Age healthy with OneSkin.
