Description
The skull under the bush: 5 years of silence.
Linda Sherman's car appeared at the airport with the trunk empty and the hood locked, while her husband claimed she had left with another man. Five years later, a skull was found near her home, but the complete police file of the case, classified as an unsolved homicide, has disappeared. What secrets does Linda Sherman's story hide?
In this episode, we analyze the disappearance of Linda Sherman in 1985, the discovery of her skull five years later, and the mysterious loss of the police file. We examine the construction of a scene that suggested a voluntary escape and the silences that have protected that narrative for nearly four decades. Who was Linda Sherman and what really happened in April 1985?
