About
   The Show

A podcast series that brings renewed attention to the cold case mysteries of Lehigh Valley, PA.

​

A grieving widow brings together a coalition of victims' families, friends, police officers, coroners, and lawyers with the purpose of engaging the community to take action.

​

Many of the 80 unsolved mysteries in the Lehigh Valley are in under-served neighborhoods where there are not enough resources for the police department to close a case.

​

By revealing new evidence, detailing facts, or hearing about the loss that still plagues the victims' loved ones, the mission of the podcast is to solve cold case murders, locate missing people, and give names to unidentified bodies.

​

This is an opportunity for individuals from all walks of life to become active participants in:

  • seeking justice for the victims

  • making right a wrong

  • healing communities

​

The Cold Case Mysteries Incubator Series chronicles cases from the Lehigh Valley (LV), located in northeastern PA. The region includes the cities of Allentown, Bethlehem, and Easton, as well as dozens of small towns.

About
   The
Host

In 2020, Lys Sparrow-Serraino’s husband, Gianfranco Serraino was murdered in Los Angeles, CA by a criminal who was released early from prison. 

​

Experiencing the pain of losing a loved one, Lys states, “There is no justice when criminals walk amongst us and don’t serve time for their crime.”

​

Returning to her hometown of Bethlehem, PA, Cold Case Mysteries was conceived while waiting for the trial of Gianfranco's murderer.
