1. Left in a trunk to die: Ebony Jackson, 30, was the third homicide victim in the city of St. Louis in 2013 -- and her three-month-old baby might have been the fourth if he wasn't discovered abandoned and taken to safety.

Thanks for the trip down memory lane. Bad enough crime committed 5 years ago is still in the news.
