Summary

Timestamp to skip the intro: (8:57)

In 2012, Iowa cousins Lyric Cook (10) and Elizabeth Collins (8) were riding their bikes on a warm summer day. When they didn't return after a few hours, their grandmother raised the alarm. Their bodies would be found five months later in a wildlife park 25 miles from where they were last seen.

Now, more than 12 years later, the murders of Lyric and Elizabeth remain unsolved.  Their causes of death have never been made public.
