I’m trying to identify an episode of the original Unsolved Mysteries. I remember a young boy going missing near woods, his father suggesting a bobcat may have been involved, and a later update saying the father killed him and put his body in a trash bag. I watched it around 2009 or 2010, but can’t find it now. Does that ring a bell?
Does anyone recognize this Unsolved Mysteries episode?

I’d start by looking for the case name rather than the season and episode number. A single episode could contain several unrelated segments, and catalog listings may index the cases separately. The update about the father may be the most distinctive clue.

Those are vivid details, but memories of older crime programs can blur together. Try searching combinations of missing boy, woods, bobcat, and body in a trash bag, while treating the animal explanation and the update as clues to verify rather than confirmed wording.

If you find a likely case title but not the episode, compare episode guides and archived program listings. That may identify where the segment originally appeared, even if it is missing from the collection you remember. For viewing, check current licensed catalogs or official home-video releases.
