Cases with Grave Consequences

This episode is about crimes that have changed the course of history. It deals with the death on the cross of a Jewish itinerant preacher, the oldest known murder case in human history and the high treason of Arminius, which led to the legendary Varus Battle. Modern forensics and experimental archaeology provide new answers to long forgotten questions: Did Jesus really die on the cross? Who killed Neanderthal Shanidar 3? How did it come about that Arminius defected to the Germanic tribes
