About The CaseDive
The CaseDive was created to solve a simple problem.
Case information is often spread across websites, videos, podcasts, documents, and social media. Valuable research becomes difficult to find, harder to follow, and even harder to revisit.
The CaseDive brings that information together into organized Case Files where documents, timelines, media coverage, research notes, and community discussion can live in one searchable place.
Beyond Case Files, the platform also includes:
-
Podcast Companion Groups
-
Missing Person pages
-
Research Resources
-
Community-written Case Articles
-
The Case Research Guide
The goal isn't simply to collect information. It's to preserve it in a way that remains useful long after discussions move on.
The CaseDive welcomes researchers, research focused podcasts, archivists, families, and community members who want to contribute responsibly to organized case research.
Whether you're researching a case, preserving records, sharing sources, or simply learning more, you're welcome here.
How it works
The site is organized around individual cases. Each case has its own research "Case File" where members can:
-
build timelines
-
share information and public documents
-
discuss cases
-
work through questions
Case Files are added by suggestions from researchers, family members or community members
Above all, The CaseDive is a community. That means respectful conversation, responsible discussion, and an understanding that real people and real lives are connected to the cases we examine.
