Episode Description

Part 2: Phoenix, Arizona 2014.  The elite cold case unit diligently worked through the files related to the Canal Murders, which included over 1,000 potential suspects. One by one, they cleared each suspect, confirming that their DNA did not match the samples collected from the brutal murders of Angela Brosso in 1992 and Melanie Bernas in 1993. The team traveled across the country in search of leads, but morale began to suffer as the investigation entered its third year without an arrest. Eager to gain fresh insights, they presented their case to the Vidocq Society in Philadelphia, a distinguished group of federal, state, and local law enforcement experts and renowned forensic investigators from various fields. Then, they heard from forensic genealogist Dr. Colleen Fitzpatrick, who offered her assistance. Would her expertise and advancements in DNA analysis lead to identifying the killer?
