本案讲述了1970年发生在萨克拉门托的南希·贝尼拉克谋杀案。南希被刺了37刀，凶手潜逃50年之久。案件调查初期，警方走访了500多人，但没有取得实质性进展。2004年，警方对案发现场提取的血样进行了重新检测，获得了凶手的完整DNA图谱，但并未在CODIS数据库中找到匹配项。直到2019年，萨克拉门托县警局冷案组利用法医遗传系谱学技术，通过DNA比对找到了凶手的几个远亲，最终确定理查德·约翰·戴维斯为凶手。戴维斯在案发时住在同一个公寓楼，但由于提供了不在场证明，从未被列为嫌疑人。戴维斯于1997年去世，无法追究其刑事责任。本案的侦破展现了法医遗传系谱学技术的强大威力，同时也表达了对受害者及其家人的同情。
