Unclosed | True Crime
Ten minutes. One real case. Unclosed tells true crime stories from Taiwan, Japan, Hong Kong and beyond - cases that were never solved, or that were closed on the wrong person. Every episode is built from court records, investigation files and contemporary reporting. No invented dialogue, no guessing at what nobody witnessed. Where the record stops, we say so. New episodes weekly. -- Hosting provided by SoundOn
