Innocence Stolen / Danger at the Door
Summary
This episode investigates two violent cold cases: the "schoolgirl rapist" in Rochester, NY, and the murder of nine-year-old Laura Arroyo in Chula Vista, CA. The first case is solved when a DNA match links a 2004 rape in Alabama to the 1995 attacks, leading to Keith Laster's conviction. The second case is cracked after 11 years when re-examining a rape kit reveals sperm DNA that matches suspect Manuel Bracamontes, resulting in his arrest and death penalty recommendation.
