The release of Netflix’s The Keepers has led to renewed tips and significant public response regarding the unsolved 1969 murder of Sister Cathy Cesnik, who may have planned to expose sexual abuse by priests in Baltimore. The series, which focuses on Cesnik’s case and abuse allegations against Rev. Joseph Maskell, has encouraged other victims and informants to come forward, and reinvigorated police interest in the case. The show has sparked hope for justice, similar to past true-crime documentaries like Making a Murderer and The Jinx.
