The newest 2009 information on this case, yes, it is still being worked on!...Bill Curtis on A&Etv has the latest on this case. I am posting a link to the episode on A&E, it airs again tonight (check your local listings)and is intriguing at the very least!!
Steve Hodell and Curtis, along with Steve Kay, retired LA County DA's office have opened up the 1949 Grand Jury paperwork files and other new files never seen before. There is documented handwriting analysis that matches George Hodell to the letters sent to LE at the time, along with many other things that are too chilling to be coincidental!
See the crime scene then and now, and how it's linked to Hodell...This is a must see for Dahlia followers!

Bill Kurtis examines one of the most infamous cold cases in Los Angeles history -- the 1947 murder of actress Elizabeth Short, who was found nude and cut in half in an empty lot. Though charges have never been filed in the case, theories abound, and Kurtis investigates some of the most prominent ones. He talks to a retired LAPD detective whose 3 year investigation led to the stunning conclusion that his own father committed the murder. Kurtis also probes the theory that the killer was a surgeon named Walter Bayley. Kurtis finally explores the possibility that there may have been a police cover-up in the case to protect the real killer.
