Kylie Lowe: 本集讲述了1976年发生在缅因州奥古斯塔的布兰奇·金博尔谋杀案。70岁的布兰奇·金博尔独居,退休前在托格斯退伍军人管理中心担任牙科技师和实习护士。案件发生后,由于缺乏证据和线索,一直未能侦破,成为悬而未决的冷案。直到2011年,新的DNA技术和一条新的线索为案件侦破带来了转机。警方通过巧妙的侦查手段,获得了嫌疑人加里·罗布的DNA样本,最终将其与案发现场的血迹样本比对成功,从而将加里·罗布逮捕归案。本案的侦破过程展现了现代科技在侦破冷案中的重要作用,也体现了警方在侦破案件中的智慧和毅力。 Gary Robb: 加里·罗布在庭审前认罪,但他没有承认自己犯下了谋杀罪行。他表示自己认罪的主要原因是为了在去世后能够拥有一个平静的良心。他声称自己不记得在奥古斯塔居住过,也不记得布兰奇·金博尔,更不记得犯下这起骇人听闻的罪行。
