He seemed uncomfortable somehow, a burly cop in the heart of wintry manhattan, he wasn't used to being the center of positive attention, and yet wake up high in a new york city hotel conference room. The sleep crowd, the lawyers, the judges are here to honor him.

For his work with the buffalo police core case unit for solving a string of rapes and murders committed by a man known as the bike path rapist, and in the process freeing an innocent ban for prison. You're free and you're free. They made a mistake. The data, thea was in no mood to spout the usual banana ties of a grateful cop clutching as big orn .

speaking news as you know, lawyers. And I just average person, average intelligence. I happen to have a lot of experience in police work.

That gathering is the cream of new york clock had hardly mistake the tones of an angry man.

Then surely people with lot degrees in that type of thing have to be able to see there's a flaw in the system here. Something has to be done with this system. And I don't know what. I just know that IT has to be .

changed even as he's specker, he knows his own futures. A cop is very bleak indeed. It's a very dangerous moment in the remarkable story you're about to hear.

This is where IT began months earlier, a simple service in a modest church. Buffalo, new york. Detective denis delay was at his usual sunday post, a member of the church ban. IT was just a fluke really when trish rides a coste learned that the man helping with the service was actually a detective, especially st in cold cases, who had become rather well known in buffalo.

I just thought I get to talk to the sky because he is the one that can look .

at my sister's case, her sister's case. That would be the dreadful business of what happened to john jamba, ninety.

Sometimes I still find myself have absorbed that after all these years.

Onions, the outside address, yeo john jumbo, was strangled between four hundred and six this morning. John gambara was forty two years old. The night her attacker raped her, choke the life out of her, left naked and dead on the living room floor a month.

This crime more so because whoever did IT also assaulted Jones to eleven year old daughter. And when the police came, they found that little girl also naked and sprawled unconscious across her mother's dead body. Both the mother and her daughter, Kathy jamba, were found new on a sofa bed.

The girl, Kathy, was breathing, but in a catonsville when her brother don corsage, the ambuLance taker away. Don was Jones eldest sun. He lived just around the corner.

He'd been at his mother's house just the night before I got out of work. And I stopped over before I went home and was nothing out the ordinary. And the next morning, one of my mom's friends came and knocked on my door and told me that there was a problem, a problem.

I ran down to my mom's house and nm. That's when I seen Kathy and a gurney, and my mom was covered up. 嗯。

I just come, ali, what I was saying, difficult, even as we spoken two thousand eight for dawn to remember, just as to katine, the lack of memory was tormenting IT ate me up inside for fifteen years, almost that I can't remember trying them every day. And there is a reason why I don't remember. Maybe IT was too Harry, but all the initial horr and IT did grip the city for the time being, gradually fade away. His interest shifted elsewhere, and the investigation of Jones fate just died.

We had to just hope that you, when they, you know, god will provide the justice .

for her is people. And so when he learned that man and her parish was a detected, heard, deeply religious heart cried to beat.

I was not to be there. I believe that all that was not an accident detected.

delano IT, should be said, did not gush enthusiasm. He had heard far too many and trees that warned up, going nowhere still. He was the church member. I pulled the file.

located the file started reinvestigate IT. My squad did .

at first IT looked, Frankly obvious. One more case among many of an angry husband a woman who wanted to .

leave SHE was gonna serve divorce papers on her husband a weak prior to her death after refile the most likely suspect seemed to be IT would be your .

husband sam genera was not charged, though there wasn't enough evidence for that back then, but there might be DNA evidence now.

The clippings from the fingernails indicate that there was a struggle and that he had squats her attacker.

The latest DNA technology could identify even a few stray skin cells life, not to those finger nails. By the now, they could know for certain if the killer was jone's husband, if the DNA was his, he must have been the.

But when we went looking for the husband to talk to him, we found out that he .

was deceased. Sam genre IT, turned out, killed himself in two thousand. That end, again and not quite the corner had preserved a crucial piece of information, a sample of sams DNA. What if that new DNA technology was applied to the old example we .

try to match DNA with the DNA founded the job, a crime scene. And IT turned out that I wasn't a match.

So the murderer wasn't. The husband couldn't have been. Now the mystery was irresistible. Delano and his team went to work in earnest partners.

and I began taking DNA samples from everybody that we could find that was associated with that case. Thing was negative.

but DNA, of course, is not the only thing a good investigator has at his or her disposal. Often it's simple chatter that will break your case remembered stories. Like the story, another of john jams daughters told about the local bar tender, who, in the weeks after Jones left, husband took her stepping out on the data too.

He had called her a few times after her mother's death, asking her how he was. He felt bad because he used to go out with her mother and oyster.

a bar tender. Who was he? Maybe if he was still feeling bad all these years, he might help solve the crime. Of course, as IT will turn out, there was much more to IT than just a curt he call.

Police say forty two year old john jamb ra was found, struggled in her hillside avenue apartment yesterday, bufo, new york, september nineteen and ninety three. John jamba, a mother of three, was found strangled and naked on her living room floor. Her seven year old daughter, unconscious, naked and dry over the dead body.

And now, all these years later, the buffalo cold case team encountered a very curious story. Another of Jones daughter told them about a mysterious phone call SHE had received after the murder from a man who claimed he dated her mother, putting her for information. He was a friend of my mothers.

You know? They found out what happened to her, the daughter agly remembred, the name Dennis, Dennis donau, weirdly similar to the detectives name Dennis delano, though two more disciplined lives would be hard divine. Thirteen years after the murder, dona Hughes still hadn't gone far from the greedy watering holes in buffalo es outside read once tended bar.

He was unemployed, now living with relatives. Time for a visit, we decided to go from lisa redman, a member of the OS cold case team all these years. Why get a sample of DNA? Well, if he dated john e. Umbra, then checked up on events after the murder, he had to be considered a suspect.

When a detective, redman, asking for A D, N, A sample, he agreed to give A D N, A sample. Uh, go figure.

The swap was not after the lab, a long wait and suit. And then IT was a perfect match. Dena dota, huge DNA matched the skin cells, found other jone jAmbers preserved fingernails.

DNA evidence was obtained. And yesterday we arrested one, denis donahoe. Another mystery apparently solved, thanks to the wonders of DNA.

I was in disbelief. But a funny thing can happen when you start to pull the thread on a long and a ragged case. Investigation began to turn up something else. String similarity ties to two other buffalo murdered cases, one in the nineteen nineties, the other way back in the nineteen seventies. And the common denominators were a method and a name.

There was a lot of similarities in the crime scene photos with two of our prior cases that I had looked at earlier.

One of those cases was the rape and murder of a middle age woman. Then Carol read, september nine, nineteen seventy five, her body, naked and struggled, was found on the living room floor of her buffalo apartment. I was in shock, you know, just didn't know what to do when we spoke to her.

More than three decades later, Carol reads, daughter Lorry crew was still picking up the pieces. Yeah, so IT was very difficult, but I think I kind of used, I think about IT tomorrow. I'll just get through today.

He saw the blood sense on the car that couldn't have been easy washing. The kitchen plan was hard, 嗯， OK. The thing of IT is that nothing ever happened.

Never heard denis donohue that turned out was a person of interest in the curl v case. He lived just down the hall in her apartment building. But there is no way then to test the my nut bits of evidence in and around the body for DNA.

And no other evidence turned up. So the investigation died. But now detective delay will be going to get that gut feeling. Cops are famous for .

KO read was murdered, left node face up under apartment floor, uh, in one thousand nine and seventy five, nine, nine, seventy five. okay. John general was murdered at nine nine ninety three.

The astana, whose birthday is nine, nine, fifty two. So both of them homicides were committed on his birthday. And IT was more .

than a coincidence. Two murder cases, same month and day, one M O, rape, strangulation, nude corpses, who was, this denotes a hue was even more in his past about that effect. Detective dino got another chip on another homicide, and once again, like a bad penny, the name denis dona.

he popped up. So I hunted that, fell down. That was for one hundred and ninety three. I read that file and I said, sure, ough. It's the same that astana .

q donau had been questioned in the one hundred and ninety three valentine's day murder of a thirteen year old girl name, Crystal jarred.

Now we have met three homicide scenes, all three victims, female, all three victims left to be found nude, a lying face up IT.

All looks so similar. Again, that distinct method of q again, Donna, who was a suspect but not charged, but in one way, the murder of Young Christal injera was very different indeed. In that case, someone else had been convicted, and that someone had been in prison for IT for more than a decade.

When I first read the file and I saw somebody was convicted of IT IT.

should I right to be enough to make detective delano stop bullying that thad? But IT wasn't. And that began a strange and dangerous struggle between a cold case cop at the system. He was sworn to up old.

IT was september two thousand and seven, a few days after the fourth anniversary of the dreadful murder of joe genre, way back in ninety ninety three, finally charged with second degree murder, a former bar tender by the name of denis donohue. DNA evidence was obtained, and yesterday we arrested one denis donagh.

But by then the real mystery surrounded other cases to which that name, dona, who had LED possible that he is a serial killer, for one thing, the thousand nine hundred and seventy five murder of Carol read, which you'd once been a person of interest. But also this, the closed case of the nineteen ninety three valentine's day murder of a thirteen year old girl. Eight months before jan jan bro was killed, Crystal lin jarrah was found naked and struggled on her bed, her valentine socks, the gut ranching reminder of what had been done there.

The victim's mother found the body and accused an x boyfriend. His name was astana. He who was taken in for questioning. And what do you know? The tape of his polygraph exams still existed here, IT is the polygraphers verdict, dana di, who was telling the truth.

Of course, polygraphed tester, not considered to be particularly reliable, do not permit in court, for example, but donahue was clear of any involved with a Crystal lds murder after that polygraph test. In fact, the assistant is red. The tourney of the time Frank Clark allowed dona huda testified to the grand jury that indeed, the main suspect who was the evil person accused of viciously strange ling sweet little Crystal lin IT, was a woman named li jack, Crystal lans mother.

What kind of a world, what kind of mother would do such a thing then? D jack was twenty nine, a single mother foot loose, a bartender herself. By the time of her arrest, a consensus that already formed in the old neighborhood, I think he .

really .

did IT SHE just .

didn't give you is my .

friends he did like he had.

I didn't do IT.

Once the trial began, IT picked up that same issue. The nights is gossip about character d. Jack was not exactly a poster child from motherhood.

SHE worked at her mother's bar. Particular grew up there. Too many late nights last to boyfriends. One of them then is down to you. In fact, the niccals ystwith lin was murdered, lyn broke up, was down a few, a screaming, threatening booze soak, night of jealousy, revenge, sex and IT turned out death for the one person innocent of everything, to kill one's own child with one's own bare hands by applying a fatal chocolat for four or five continuous minutes.

Without question, weekly evil, the prosecutor wove a story about a drunken, unfit mother who left her child alone all night long and then boiled over in the fit of unrestrained fury on her return home and choke her own daughter to death. And that was more IT seemed than just a theory. An old family friend named wane hudson told the jury that lindy jack met him in a bar months after Crystal's death and in a drunken super confide IT to him her dreadful secret. How could defense attorney Andrew a tempo counter this wine?

Hodson said there was, there were people in the bar, and that he came up to woman started crying and just got to know where that I can't take IT anymore. I need to tell you what .

to the jury was convinced glin had struggled and killed her own daughter.

I didn't do this lean.

wept with most everyone assumed were crock out tears. And the judge gave her twenty five to life. Indeed, guilty of this crime. Detective delight pored over the nine, hundred and ninety four trial transcripts. All eight hundred pages turned out he new and like the prosecutor josef maruja, and he certainly believed in her guilty.

He told me he was absolutely guilty.

called in other acquaintance lond jx defensive tourney andreo tempo .

he said he didn't do IT he didn't say.

although tempo gave detected delano and fearful about the police and the da s. office.

I think that what he happened, quite Frankly, is that they ran into a case here where there were not a lot of leads. And the next day after the Crystalman's body was found, they went out. There are the women in the neighborhood. Immediately we're saying ahead to be in no one else could have done that said, had to be .

still low temper was pretty sure he knew why the Jerry convicted IT was the testimony of wine hudson, that old family friend. Each old jurors in djack confessed to him her crime. But there was an important fact about hudson.

He was a two time convicted felon. I'd been charged again, tapio told detective dao. He always suspected the D.

S. Office made A C. Deal with mr. hudson. And yet, you know, the da says no offer, or was made to him. No, and he got nothing from IT.

Well, at the time, mr. RAM hudson, he had two prior felony convictions. He was under entitled on a third felony conviction in .

new york state. At the time, a third felony conviction was worth twenty .

five alive after that way in hodson's origin. Inal case comes up in court where he is allowed by the directory to plea to a mister mir, thereby doing absolutely no jail time when he was originally faced in twenty five life. Now i'm not saying that the district tourney made a deal with way in, but IT sure looks like to me.

Detective delay o considered all this and .

concluded absolutely nothing about that trial. The tech, the morning, I, anything else added up.

Not my mind anyway, by now he was all but convinced. Then d. Jack had been framed. SHE did not murder her daughter, but dano needed to hear herself at himself. So he called the jack at the maximum security prison where he had been held for thirty years.

I was more convinced that to talking about that .

he didn't do IT. And so detective delano put that certainty into his hit pocket, right beside his dog, get sense of right, wrong, and went public. And innocent woman was in prison, he told the press.

I felt somebody had to do something about IT.

perhaps, but the da, Frank Clark, was not amused. The da was a man whose undeniable popularity and judgment that kept him in the job for a long time. And in this case, the judgment of a jury thirteen years earlier is what counted, not some to of opium.

We all have opinions, and you know what our opinions are. And for mine too, you know what they can for a great big nothing. The only opinion that counts is the jury's opinion besides D.

A. Clark at butter heads with detective delano and public, already that time, another convict was released from prison, and delay wound up getting that award in new york city. Was the cop going to defy the da again at this point? IT was pretty clear somebody was gone to get hurt.

This area here is a basically called a south buffo area.

They called IT. The queen city once buffo new york, a place bursting was steal and trade and high pay jobs. But times changed.

Just a worker man's towns back then there was a bar on every just about it's .

my neighbor od, where detective delano and the cold case squad found themselves investigating a series of murder thought at the time to be unrelated. It's where thirteen year old Crystal in jar grew and lived and died her dreadful deaths on valentine's day nineteen and ninety three kill the jury decided by her own mother, lindy jack.

a consequence pouring over and over IT again that most likely SHE didn't commit the crime.

instead believed detective delano, the murderer r was das dona hue d. jx. Jott boyfriend, the same man now charged with killing joe gambara, the goal case that LED investigators to other crimes in the outside of buffalo. But to convince the D A delay or on a team needed hard evidence.

I'm gonna a sit down on the of and i'll help in any way I can .

because I think I always believe, donor, you committed the crime. And thus an unlikely alliance was formed. The detective in the defensive tourney said how to free in dee jack and find convincing evidence against denis.

I had directed them as to what evidence might have spent in the evidence boxes that could be retested for DNA using the current DNA technologies.

Detective delano on the buffo police coal k squad dog up the evidence boxx. Was there enough material to produce a sample of DNA? why? Yes, there was.

There was a blood on some type of fluid. There was male DNA found in that mixture.

That male DNA was found in three places in and around the body of Christal. In the police, remember, also had a sample of denis donahue DNA. The samples were compared, matched IT was a slam down at that point absolutely. Now that IT seemed to delay, no was evidence of da would have to listen to. But then again.

maybe not. The issue is whether that fact indicates that someone other than nd jack was the person who killed her daughter.

Da Clark was at the view that the matching DNA did not necessarily indicate another killer. Now, by rights, the da was the boss after all, and he made the call.

Then we were told the lay off IT.

So that pretty much was that time to quit except, well, you've probably already gathered the detective dana wasn't about to do that. He did not quit. He went over the bosses head again and made his case to the public.

A buffalo o cold case. Detectives spoke publicly about .

the case to which Frank Clarke shot back also in public, a suggestion that the DNA evidence did not prove on a hill. Kill Crystal lyn IT might immense of the D A. That he was having consensual sex with that thirteen year old and that her mother may still .

have been in the killer let's take a hypothetical um if somebody has sexual relations with somebody else and that somebody else turns up dead two days later is the fact that they had sexual relations evidence of the homicide well .

though as far as detective delano was concerned were fighting words the D. A, he said, had been pune the character of an innocent, murdered girl, the very idea she's been having sex with that man .

that's absent, disgusting. And for him to to publicly state something like that, I think it's totally untaught able and, uh, irresponsible. IT was an .

unequal battle. Of course, detectives are not supposed to take on the D A, especially on television, but all of a sudden the odds change quite dramatically. A judge have been looking at the new evidence detected, delay I know had found and issued an order release in d jack from prisons, release upon our own that's over this court we stand a germ.

And just like that, lean walked out of the courts into the cold buffo air. But to what freedom? Well, not quite.

The D. A had an option. Now he could drop all charges against lindy jack, or he could try her all over again.

The question of guilty, innocence hasn't been .

determined. The decision was quick retrial for murder, really in by to that new D N. A evidence. It's been a long couple of weeks, hasn't a then again, the of diving trouble, keeping his mouth shot.

before Christmas two thousand and seven when, after thirteen years in prison, convicted of murdering her own daughter, lindy jack was released. But not quite free.

They're still trying to say they are gona retry me when they reach me and I hope and pray that god they do. That's when i'll be vindicated.

SHE said he was still waiting to learn her fake with her for support her husband and the father, twin boys. She's been getting reacquainted after all that time. As for her story, nobody ever really knew her side. He said he never testified in court during her trial and decided to tell us what he knows about what happened and about her daughter. Crystal in SHE was a little body.

Yes, he was my heart. SHE was considered IT was compassionate. SHE looked out for me more than I looked for her.

and often IT fell to Christal in at thirteen, the mother, her eight year old brother eddy, while lin was out working at the bar, SHE was heard of the grown up in this relationship in some ways.

in some ways, yes, he wants, yes, he wants.

And then valentine, one hundred and ninety three. Crystal lin spent the evening at home alone while her mother attended a friend's wedding with anastasia, a man he admits he was dating, not for love, but for help and starting a business.

Truth of the matter, I was playing him, and I don't know what I was going to do at the end, but I know I was playing and would try to get this business out of him so I could be on my own.

But he soon noticed all the things about donohue. For one thing, he said he was very positive.

Ve, he hired somebody to follow me on a girl's night out. He just stocker, yes, I had told myself after the wedding that I was going to back up with him, and that's exactly what I did.

And thus, on an unlucky street corner of south buffo and native drama, dana stana, u. SHE said, followed her to her mother's bar. And when he fled from there, he followed her to her house.

About six doors down the street around midnight, he had a screaming, drunken fight and suit. And still, dana, he refused to leave. Crystal helped her mother call nine one.

He leaped the phone out of my hand, and I preceded to, again, pick up the phone and call the police, because the police are coming in. Now leaves.

and then lindy jack made what may have been the biggest mistake of her life. SHE turned to her daughter and said.

don't answer the door when the police come, and I want to get any trouble for leaving a home alone.

That's right. SHE left her daughter alone in the house and headed back down the street to her mother's bar. SHE rationalized Christal yin was an accomplished baby city SHE could look after at the bar. Lin once again encounter dona you.

He comes into the bar, starts chasing me all around the bar.

The night spiral from bad to worse. When lyn met up with an old boyfriend at the bar and left with him, ditching donor, you then stock the para them throughout the night, jealousy fuelled by alcohol, drugs and rage.

We got out the car and then a stani who came out of nowhere grab in Michael from behind and pull a knife up to his throat. And he was asking me, is this what you want? Is this what you want? And I said, yes, IT is.

Lyn said SHE slip back to the house to check on her daughter one more time at about four thirty A M. Her story supported by the former boyfriend, who said he went with her .

and he was fine. I breathe a sigh relief.

but then SHE left again. SHE and her male companion went back to his place, where he spent the rest of the night, and IT was afternoon by the time he arrived home again.

When I came and I I just knew something was wrong. You know, Crystal, are you?

Are you up? No answer. SHE stepped into the bedroom and there was Crystal lin. He was lying on the bed naked, but for some red socks, SHE had warned for valentine's day.

Please, I have exchange. You just don't wanna believe what you saying.

The police came.

Then I went down for questioning. Toward the end, I started feeling like, way, this is not going like, I feel that I should be going questioning questions that should be brought to a grieving mother.

Expected.

they never came out, but I felt.

did you ask them, you know, have you talk to this .

dunning I selling them? You need to go get danny here.

And the police did contact on a huge that was when he passed the polygraph test, was eliminated as a suspect eight months after her daughter er's death. Lin d. Jack was charged with second degree murder. Lyn was tried, convicted and sentence to twenty five years of life.

I feel IT was more my lifetime. I got me convicted, not the actual crime itself.

By that time she'd given birth to twins they were taken away to Foster care. So was a Rachel old son, eddy.

There's no words in the english language to describe IT.

In the thirteen years of prison that followed, SHE had lots of time to think it's true. What they say, the pain never really go away.

never goes away. Never, and you never stop playing the what if game.

How do you play the what if game?

What if I wouldn't applying this man? What if I wouldn't have left her too? Baby said her brother. Baby said herself.

and you can buy your back. And then not long after her release, lyn heard the D. S.

announcement. A new medical examiner had been brought in to review the case, the famous Michael burden. And what did he pronounce, how those Crystaline died of a cocaine overdose?

Abundant amount of force that was present out of the nose and mouth, which is typical of a drug .

over those that meaning, said the da, he would now drop all charges against len d jack.

manual regulation was not the cause of death. We no longer have a criminal case. The legal issues, as far as i'm concerned, are over both regard to deject donahue and every yes .

Victory or was IT because now the D. A was saying Crystaline wasn't even murdered. IT was a cocaine overdose.

What an insult to the victims. A detective delay now had yet another bone to pick with the D. A.

It's not a cocaine overdose. You can bring in ten doctor batons and say the same thing. And I still disagree with him.

Well, OK was found in Crystal in the body at the time of her death. The original pathologist at the amount was too small to be lethal. Crystal died of violent death by manual strangulation, for which there was evidence. And and then, of course, there was a new DNA evidence linking dona you into the scene of the death.

All my experience, my heart, everything tells me that this is a homicide .

and delay was determined to prove IT so against his bosses direct daughter to stop talking to the media, he took his evidence and the reporter to a convention of forensic scientists in washington, dc.

They finally agreed that um the death was most likely not a cocaine over those and that you could not ignore all the other a evidence in .

the case and that is when the buffo police said enough is enough detective Dennis delano was suspended without pay.

IT was still winter two thousand seven when Linda channel rip, then whining le, the first day of that experience.

What was the first time of .

a cell phone? Yes, a call to held the sun.

I miss you. I M I mean, it's it's homecoming, but IT doesn't feel like a home coming without you. I miss you.

SHE was even a guest on the today show, her Youngest, the twins born as he went to prison. But our teens.

my boys, were still babies to me, and i'm coming home to ground men. I want to be hugging them and kissing them and taking them into my arms.

And you treat them like little babies.

just be affected IT in loving to them. And because they haven't had female interaction like that female, they would jg away from me, and I would stand me right heart.

Alist edy served two tours in iraq, had a wife and kids of his own. The twins father is chuck Peters. He married lin in prison, stuck with her all those .

years at the wrong side, honey .

adjustments .

and the.

SHE listened as the state claimed her daughter had died of a cocaine overdose.

My daughter didn't use drugs. My daughter was on the honor.

Then her hero, the man whose investigation freed her, was suspended without pay, and finally then is done to you. Once weekly, her boyfriend went on trial for second degree murder for killing john. Ja, that's the coal case that started at all.

Fact, john string to death and the defendants N A is under all three.

And as lindy jack waited for Donna hu's trial to end SHE celebrated mother's day for the first time in years, SHE replaced her prison polaroid with the real family portraits. In a day later, after seven hours of deliberation, the jury reached its verdict. Anastasia, he was guilty of murdering john jam bra.

There was a brief meeting in front of the courthouse, then d jack and john jumbles family. Finally, something that felt like justice to our children, don cornea and caffeine jamba. They will never bring my mother back.

But IT was SHE finally gets some peace. And her case finally being solved is that day was very cool. Me and we need that day. And then the day after IT was so Sunny and beautiful outside that was like, you knew your mother, my mother was shining down on us like, like SHE was in a Gloria.

And finally, at harassment peace, perhaps the biggest outrage for delay was a deniston whose DNA was linked to thirteen year old Crystal in the case could never be brought to trial in her death. why?
