55 Bodies found on the Grounds of a Creepy Shuttered Reform School in Florida

Now this sounds like the making of a very good movie starring Denzel Washington as an investigator trying to get to the bottom of this mystery.

On a hillside in the rolling, tall-pine forests near the Alabama-Georgia border, a team of more than 50 searchers from nine agencies last year dug up the graves to check out local legends and family tales of boys, mostly black, who died or disappeared without explanation from the Dozier School for Boys early in the last century.

The school, infamous for accounts of brutality told by former inmates, was closed by the state in 2011.

The University of South Florida was commissioned to look into deaths at the school in the Panhandle city of Marianna, after the Florida Department of Law Enforcement announced the presence of 31 official grave sites in 2010.

Have the movie flash back and forth between modern times and the turn of the century as clues are slowly put together. In any case I hope they find out how those 55 people died because it sounds like a serial killer to me.
