    Dec 18 2024
    Annie Börjesson had been living in Edinburgh, Scotland and was eager to go home to visit her family and friends back in Sweden. She'd planned a trip to IKEA, a hair appointment, and packed two library books that she'd take back while she was in town, but she never got the chance because she was found dead on the beach on December 4, 2005. Police quickly ruled it a suicide, but was it really murder?
