本案讲述了1959年9岁女孩坎迪斯·罗杰斯失踪并遇害的故事。案件发生后，警方和志愿者进行了大规模搜寻，并收到了大量线索，但始终未能破案。案件一度被称为"悬案中的珠穆朗玛峰"。60多年后，警方利用基因系谱学技术，通过对犯罪现场DNA样本的分析，最终确定了凶手约翰·霍夫。约翰·霍夫在案发时20岁，住在坎迪斯家附近，曾有性侵前科。尽管凶手已去世，但此案的告破为其他悬案的侦破提供了新的思路和方法。此案也反映了科技进步对侦破案件的重要作用。坎迪斯的家人在多年后终于得知了真相，对他们来说，这或许是一种解脱。

#112 - On March 6, 1959, nine-year-old Candice "Candy" Rogers disappeared while selling Camp Fire mints around her Spokane, Washington, neighborhood. Two weeks later, the police discovered her body buried in the woods. The gruesome discovery revealed that her killer kidnapped and sexually assaulted her before murdering her. Initially, the police received thousands of tips that led to several possible suspects. But as the months turned to years, the murder of Candice Rogers became known as the state's "Mount Everest of Cold Cases." After six long decades, the police finally identified a promising suspect in the young girl's brutal murder through genetic genealogy.
