Shownotes Transcript

#056 - On September 13th, 2006, the body of a female victim washed ashore in the upscale city of Newport Beach, California. The victim had 52 stab wounds across her entire body. The knife was found still plunged into one of her eyes. Unable to identify the victim through fingerprints, police looked to the serial number found on her breast implants to make the identification.

Police quickly zeroed in on their prime suspect, but as the investigation progressed, the forensic evidence seemed to point detectives in a completely different direction.Support My WorkIf you love the show, the easiest way to show your support is by leaving us a positive rating with a review.
