播音员:本集讲述了1988年10岁女孩克里斯汀·科尔在罗德岛帕塔克特失踪并死亡的案件。克里斯汀在1月6日晚上外出买东西后没有回家,数周后她的遗体在数英里外被发现。警方调查了多名嫌疑人,甚至进行了逮捕,但由于证据不足或不当行为指控,案件未能得到解决。克里斯汀的死因被裁定为无法确定,但警方将此案视为一起凶杀案。 本案涉及多个地点,包括Red's Seafood、朋友的公寓、Saints Market和Star Market。目击者报告和警犬追踪为克里斯汀的活动轨迹提供了线索,但这些线索最终未能导致破案。警方调查了多名嫌疑人,包括理查德·格雷夫斯和理查德·加德纳,但都没有足够的证据将他们与克里斯汀的死亡联系起来。 2018年,一名新警探重新调查了此案,并发现了10年前对证据进行的DNA测试结果,但这些结果从未被记录在案。新的DNA测试结果显示了一个部分YSTR DNA图谱,与当时未出生的人相符,但与该人的男性亲属相符。警方将目光投向了该人的父亲若昂·蒙特罗,并最终逮捕了他。然而,由于证据不足,指控被撤销。 本案中,警方还调查了米歇尔·诺里斯的死亡案件,米歇尔也是一名年轻女孩,在同一年失踪并死亡。警方不确定这两起案件之间是否存在联系。 Kylie Lowe:作为本案的讲述者,我提供了案件的背景信息、调查过程和关键人物的介绍。我强调了案件中存在的挑战,例如证据不足、不当行为指控以及DNA证据的局限性。我还讨论了案件对克里斯汀的家人和社区的影响,以及他们对正义的渴望。

When a 10-year-old girl didn’t come back from a quick trip to the store on a cold January night in 1988, her family and the Pawtucket, Rhode Island community searching for her feared the worst. Then weeks later when her body was found miles away, those fears were confirmed… and the questions just started stacking up.

What happened to Christine Cole? Investigators have considered multiple persons of interest and suspects over the last 30-plus years and even made an arrest, but the evidence crumbled as allegations of misconduct rose to the surface.
