00:05:00,066 --> 00:05:02,768 and what happened to her detectives are faced with 98 00:05:02,869 --> 00:05:04,469 another challenge. 99 00:05:04,570 --> 00:05:07,673 She was preserved, for lack of a better word, 100 00:05:07,774 --> 00:05:09,908 because it was freezing, it was February. 101 00:05:10,009 --> 00:05:13,145 So that puts a hamper on pinpointing at this point in 102 00:05:13,246 --> 00:05:14,546 the investigation, the time of death 103 00:05:14,647 --> 00:05:17,349 to find out exactly where she was and how she died. 104 00:05:19,419 --> 00:05:21,653 THOMAS: When you don't know where someone has been 105 00:05:21,754 --> 00:05:25,857 in the last 24 hours, and you have someone who 106 00:05:25,958 --> 00:05:31,129 is found in the way that she was found, it's New York City, 107 00:05:31,230 --> 00:05:34,032 she could have come in contact with anyone. 108 00:05:34,133 --> 00:05:36,335 So if you don't have a timeline, 109 00:05:36,436 --> 00:05:38,804 you have an unsolved murder. 110 00:05:38,905 --> 00:05:41,106 NARRATOR: With so many unanswered questions, 111 00:05:41,207 --> 00:05:43,975 the detectives know that the road to the killer runs 112 00:05:44,077 --> 00:05:47,212 through identifying their Jane Doe. 113 00:05:47,313 --> 00:05:49,581 CORNICELLO: We have to start by finding out who she is, 114 00:05:49,682 --> 00:05:52,050 and we really had a clean slate, 115 00:05:52,151 --> 00:05:53,885 unfortunately, to go on, 116 00:05:57,190 --> 00:05:59,358 McTIGHE: She was found in a desolate area. 117 00:05:59,459 --> 00:06:02,327 There were no cameras near where she was found. 118 00:06:02,428 --> 00:06:04,529 There wasn't a lot of people to be interviewed. 119 00:06:04,630 --> 00:06:06,431 There wasn't a big area to canvass. 120 00:06:06,532 --> 00:06:09,201 So we're hoping that the medical examiner will find 121 00:06:09,302 --> 00:06:11,002 any little thing in the investigation that's gonna 122 00:06:11,104 --> 00:06:13,372 help us identify her, 'cause I can't find out 123 00:06:13,473 --> 00:06:15,941 who killed you unless I know who you are. 124 00:06:16,042 --> 00:06:18,143 NARRATOR: The only thing detectives can be sure of 125 00:06:18,244 --> 00:06:20,245 at this point is that a woman's body 126 00:06:20,346 --> 00:06:24,049 was found at 8:26 PM at Fountain and Seaview. 127 00:06:24,150 --> 00:06:26,184 They're counting on the autopsy to reveal 128 00:06:26,285 --> 00:06:28,887 more about how and when she died. 129 00:06:28,988 --> 00:06:32,290 TAUB: Her wrists were bound from behind with plastic zip ties. 130 00:06:34,727 --> 00:06:37,829 Inside the blanket, she was wrapped in tape, 131 00:06:37,930 --> 00:06:39,531 and below the tape, 132 00:06:39,632 --> 00:06:41,933 she had had a sock stuffed into 133 00:06:42,034 --> 00:06:45,003 her mouth and shoved down her throat. 134 00:06:45,104 --> 00:06:49,274 So ultimately, she died of asphyxia, the inability to get 135 00:06:49,375 --> 00:06:51,810 air to the lungs and blood to the brain. 136 00:06:53,679 --> 00:06:55,647 And it became clear from the autopsy 137 00:06:55,748 --> 00:06:57,315 and the internal examination 138 00:06:57,417 --> 00:07:01,186 that she had been the victim of a brutal sex crime. 139 00:07:02,955 --> 00:07:05,457 McTIGHE: She had distinctive tan lines, 140 00:07:05,558 --> 00:07:09,394 like boy shorts tan lines as opposed to a bikini. 141 00:07:09,495 --> 00:07:11,963 And it's February. 142 00:07:12,064 --> 00:07:16,535 So this person obviously was just at a beach somewhere. 143 00:07:16,636 --> 00:07:19,137 NARRATOR: Her fingernails were also cut very short, 144 00:07:19,238 --> 00:07:22,240 and a chunk of her hair was hacked off. 145 00:07:22,341 --> 00:07:24,576 And the way the fingernails and the hair were cut, 146 00:07:24,677 --> 00:07:25,644 that's not normal. 147 00:07:27,213 --> 00:07:31,082 STOCKDALE: Why would someone cut off a woman's hair? 148 00:07:31,184 --> 00:07:35,120 Makes me think that this person is very careful. 149 00:07:35,221 --> 00:07:36,788 They're very planful. 150 00:07:36,889 --> 00:07:39,224 They know what they're doing, and they don't want 151 00:07:39,325 --> 00:07:41,259 DNA evidence. 152 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:43,929 McTIGHE: The medical examiner could say 153 00:07:44,030 --> 00:07:48,066 that time of death was within 12 to 24 hours 154 00:07:48,167 --> 00:07:49,901 of when we found her. 155 00:07:51,471 --> 00:07:54,372 NARRATOR: Detectives must now piece together Jane Doe's last 156 00:07:54,474 --> 00:07:56,875 24 hours to find her killer, 157 00:07:56,976 --> 00:07:59,411 starting with identifying who she is. 158 00:08:03,449 --> 00:08:06,852 TAUB: The Daily News put out online rather quickly 159 00:08:06,953 --> 00:08:09,087 the fact that the police had provided to them that 160 00:08:09,188 --> 00:08:12,190 a body has been found and appears to be homicidal in such 161 00:08:12,291 --> 00:08:14,392 and such location, in such and such a time. 162 00:08:16,262 --> 00:08:19,698 GILLIS: Sometimes, the police and the media have a very 163 00:08:19,799 --> 00:08:21,666 cooperative relationship. 164 00:08:21,767 --> 00:08:25,770 We can help them by getting the message out that a body has 165 00:08:25,872 --> 00:08:28,406 been found, that a killer's on the loose, 166 00:08:28,508 --> 00:08:32,077 you know, asking for help from the media to get the word out 167 00:08:32,178 --> 00:08:33,278 about it so they might be able 168 00:08:33,379 --> 00:08:35,881 to identify who this person was. 169 00:08:35,982 --> 00:08:38,884 And that message goes out to millions of people 170 00:08:38,985 --> 00:08:40,085 very quickly. 171 00:08:42,221 --> 00:08:44,256 NARRATOR: The morning after Jane Doe's discovery, 172 00:08:44,357 --> 00:08:45,991 a young woman, 173 00:08:46,092 --> 00:08:49,928 Alejandra St. Guillen, comes into the 75th Precinct. 174 00:08:50,029 --> 00:08:53,131 She's seen the news bulletin and has information. 175 00:08:53,232 --> 00:08:55,200 Her sister is missing. 176 00:08:55,301 --> 00:08:57,068 McTIGHE: We bring in the interview room. 177 00:08:57,169 --> 00:08:59,638 I ask her, "Why do you feel that this person is 178 00:08:59,739 --> 00:09:01,773 the person you think it is?" 179 00:09:03,242 --> 00:09:05,176 She says her sister just got back from vacation 180 00:09:05,278 --> 00:09:07,779 from Florida, visiting with her mom and her stepdad. 181 00:09:09,148 --> 00:09:11,950 And she was out with friends the night before, 182 00:09:12,051 --> 00:09:15,654 so that's important, because of the tan lines. 183 00:09:17,023 --> 00:09:18,757 But we just wanted to make sure. 184 00:09:18,858 --> 00:09:22,160 And I had a Polaroid picture now from the autopsy, 185 00:09:23,496 --> 00:09:24,563 and I showed her the picture, 186 00:09:24,664 --> 00:09:26,431 and she was obviously distraught. 187 00:09:30,069 --> 00:09:31,469 Just in total disbelief, 188 00:09:31,571 --> 00:09:33,805 shock, you

Detectives are finally able to identify 192 00:09:44,016 --> 00:09:45,917 the victim of this grisly homicide. 193 00:09:47,687 --> 00:09:50,021 She's 24-year-old Imette St. Guillen. 194 00:09:51,524

00:27:55,340 --> 00:27:59,276 This was front page news, and so when the police 578 00:27:59,377 --> 00:28:01,545 department executed a search warrant 579 00:28:01,646 --> 00:28:04,948 on Darryl Littlejohn's home in Queens, 580 00:28:05,050 --> 00:28:08,218 the camera crews from the local TV stations were on 581 00:28:08,319 --> 00:28:10,954 scene, and they led their news story 582

ongoing media coverage 594 00:28:44,389 --> 00:28:46,790 and the public's desire to see Imette St. Guillen's 595 00:28:46,891 --> 00:28:49,126 killer brought to justice. 596 00:28:49,227 --> 00:28:50,928 She was a sable-eyed beauty is 597 00:28:51,029 --> 00:28:53,197 the way the Post used to describe her 598 00:28:53,298 --> 00:28:55,132 and how she was a grad student. 599 00:28:56,434 --> 00:29:01,438 She had a very strong will, and she went her own way. 600 00:29:01,539 --> 00:29:04,174 It was a reminder that things can 601 00:29:04,275 --> 00:29:06,110 happen, and the city's a dangerous place. 602 00:29:08,079 --> 00:29:10,614 CORNICELLO: You go out with friends, you're in a bar, 603 00:29:10,715 --> 00:29:11,749 you're having drinks, 604 00:29:11,850 --> 00:29:13,751

00:29:20,157 and then you're never seen again. 608 00:29:21,593 --> 00:29:24,862 It's shocking, and it's -- And it hits home, 609 00:29:24,963 --> 00:29:27,464 because so many people 610 00:29:27,565 --> 00:29:30,167 will sit there and say, "I've done that." 611 00:29:32,237 --> 00:29:35,706 And that's what really, I think, took over everybody's attention. 612 00:29:37,709 --> 00:29:41,145 When a case has sort of captivated the attention of 613 00:29:41,246 --> 00:29:42,746 a city, especially a large city 614 00:29:42,847 --> 00:29:45,849 like New York City, there can be an immense amount of 615 00:29:45,950 --> 00:29:49,787 pressure for investigators to solve the case quickly, 616 00:29:49,888 --> 00:29:52,723 especially if there is a concern within the community 617 00:29:52,824 --> 00:29:54,124 that there could be a killer in 618 00:29:54,225 --> 00:29:57,060 their midst and that they might be next. 619 00:29:57,162 --> 00:29:58,529 By getting the message out, 620 00:29:58,630 --> 00:30:02,533 the public might be able to report suspicious activity that 621 00:30:02,634 --> 00:30:05,803 they saw when they were leaving a bar late at night. 622 00:30:07,272 --> 00:30:10,040 NARRATOR: The persistent media coverage eventually unearths 623 00:30:10,141 --> 00:30:12,109 a significant lead for detectives. 624 00:30:13,645 --> 00:30:16,647 TAUB: A young woman who was a college student 625 00:30:16,748 --> 00:30:20,450 at York College was watching a newscast, 626 00:30:20,552 --> 00:30:23,287 and she had been a victim of an unsolved crime 627 00:30:23,388 --> 00:30:25,122 just a short time earlier, 628 00:30:25,223 --> 00:30:29,793 back in November of 2005, and she saw in the background with 629 00:30:29,894 --> 00:30:30,994 the clean lights of the camera, 630 00:30:31,095 --> 00:30:33,564 she saw Darryl Littlejohn's van, and she said, 631 00:30:33,665 --> 00:30:36,166 "That's the van that I was abducted in." 632 00:30:37,702 --> 00:30:41,805 She had been on her way home from college classes 633 00:30:41,906 --> 00:30:43,774 when she was abducted by a man 634 00:30:43,875 --> 00:30:46,577 who seemed to be some sort of law enforcement 635 00:30:46,678 --> 00:30:49,279 and was suggesting that he was going to arrest her, 636 00:30:49,380 --> 00:30:51,648 and he handcuffed her and threw her in 637 00:30:51,749 --> 00:30:54,718 the back of a van, but it gradually occurred to her 638 00:30:54,819 --> 00:30:56,753 that this was not 639 00:30:56,855 --> 00:30:59,690 somebody in law enforcement at all, and this was an abduction. 640 00:31:01,059 --> 00:31:03,627 And so when the van slowed down and roll around a corner, 641 00:31:03,728 --> 00:31:05,329 she opened the door and jumped out. 642 00:31:05,430 --> 00:31:07,931 And she escaped and survived. 643 00:31:09,367 --> 00:31:11,335 So what happens is, the police take 644 00:31:11,436 --> 00:31:13,670 Littlejohn and put him in a lineup, 645 00:31:13,771 --> 00:31:17,674 but she can't make an identification of him. 646 00:31:17,775 --> 00:31:21,578 But the significance of this young woman's abduction was 647 00:31:21,679 --> 00:31:22,679 that there was a pattern 648 00:31:22,780 --> 00:31:25,916 to Darryl Littlejohn's conduct that was 649 00:31:26,017 --> 00:31:27,851 so similar to Imette's case. 650 00:31:29,287 --> 00:31:32,589 He engaged young, attractive women 651 00:31:33,992 --> 00:31:36,426 and pretended to be in law enforcement 652 00:31:36,527 --> 00:31:38,662 and then abducted them, 653 00:31:38,763 --> 00:31:40,597 and they met foul play. 654 00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:47,471 Everyone was a suspect until Darryl Littlejohn emerged 655 00:31:47,572 --> 00:31:48,872 as a real suspect. 656 00:31:50,475 --> 00:31:53,543 NARRATOR: With a pattern of behavior and the means, 657 00:31:53,645 --> 00:31:55,812 detectives are certain that Darryl Littlejohn is 658 00:31:55,914 --> 00:31:58,949 the only person who had the opportunity to kill Imette. 659 00:32:00,618 --> 00:32:02,853 I think, unfortunately, with people who are sexually 660 00:32:02,954 --> 00:32:07,624 sadistic, there may be people who require more aggression, 661 00:32:07,725 --> 00:32:11,428 more pain, or more suffering to be inflicted for them to 662 00:32:11,529 --> 00:32:13,730 achieve the same level or a higher level 663 00:32:13,831 --> 00:32:16,433 of sexual arousal, almost like a high. 664 00:32:16,534 --> 00:32:18,969 We would call these people increasers. 665 00:32:19,070 --> 00:32:22,005 So for him, there's an increased likelihood 666 00:32:22,073 --> 00:32:24,174 that he has fantasies that are 667 00:32:24,275 --> 00:32:27,144 compulsively driving him to do this, and that 668 00:32:27,245 --> 00:32:32,149 because he's aroused by power or control and domination and hurt 669 00:32:32,250 --> 00:32:36,954 increases the likelihood that homicide would be the result of 670 00:32:37,055 --> 00:32:39,723 any of the sexual attacks that he may perpetrate. 671 00:32:41,192 --> 00:32:42,926 NARRATOR: With the clock ticking, detectives 672 00:32:43,027 --> 00:32:44,761 interview a new witness, 673 00:32:44,862 --> 00:32:47,464 a security guard who works nights in the area where 674 00:32:47,565 --> 00:32:49,967 Imette's body was dropped. 675 00:32:50,068 --> 00:32:52,202 McTIGHE: He remembers walking along Fountain Avenue 676 00:32:52,303 --> 00:32:54,838 and seeing a minivan, 677 00:32:54,939 --> 00:32:56,940 and a guy's inside the van on the phone, 678 00:32:57,041 --> 00:32:59,476 because the phone's lit up. 679 00:32:59,577 --> 00:33:00,444 He didn't give us a plate, 680 00:33:00,545 --> 00:33:02,612 he didn't say for sure that was Darryl, 681 00:33:02,714 --> 00:33:05,615 but it's the same type of minivan that Darryl owns. 682 00:33:06,918 --> 00:33:10,721 TAUB: The fellow that worked at the landfill as a nightwatchman, 683 00:33:10,822 --> 00:33:13,657 his shift was supposed to be from seven PM to seven AM, 684 00:33:13,758 --> 00:33:17,728 12-hour shifts, but he wasn't always on time. 685 00:33:17,829 --> 00:33:19,730 Police department got his MetroCard, 686 00:33:19,831 --> 00:33:23,367 and they were able to trace exactly when he boarded 687 00:33:23,468 --> 00:33:26,870 the first train or bus in the Bronx and took the train to 688 00:33:26,971 --> 00:33:30,507 Brooklyn and then got on a bus in Brooklyn to go to his job. 689 00:33:30,608 --> 00:33:32,275 McTIGHE: So he's supposed to be a work at seven. 690 00:33:32,377 --> 00:33:34,544 It's late -- now it's 7:30 691 00:33:34,645 --> 00:33:37,180 as he's walking down this route on Fountain Avenue. 692 00:33:37,281 --> 00:33:39,683 Timing is unbelievable. 693 00:33:39,751 --> 00:33:42,486 He was at the right place at the right time. 694 00:33:42,587 --> 00:33:45,422 The evidence was overwhelming that this was Darryl's van 695 00:33:45,523 --> 00:33:47,491 and, of course, the description, limited 696 00:33:47,592 --> 00:33:50,260 though it was, was spot on. 697 00:33:50,361 --> 00:33:52,295 I felt very confident 698 00:33:52,397 --> 00:33:55,832 Darryl Littlejohn was not just the person who dumped the body, 699 00:33:55,933 --> 00:33:57,334 but he was also the killer. 700 00:34:04,642 --> 00:34:06,376 NARRATOR: Detectives are closing in on 701 00:34:06,477 --> 00:34:09,746 the prime suspect in Imette St. Guillen's murder, 702 00:34:09,847 --> 00:34:11,548 Darryl Littlejohn. 703 00:34:11,649 --> 00:34:14,818 But their evidence in the case is entirely circumstantial. 704 00:34:14,919 --> 00:34:17,721 Particularly if you wind up with a circumstantial case with 705 00:34:17,822 --> 00:34:19,890 no confession, with no eye witnesses, 706 00:34:19,991 --> 00:34:21,758 the timeline becomes 707 00:34:21,859 --> 00:34:24,227 all that more important, because 708 00:34:24,328 --> 00:34:26,363 your circumstantial evidence that you collect 709 00:34:26,464 --> 00:34:29,032 and gather either fits, or it doesn't fit. 710 00:34:29,133 --> 00:34:31,902 And a lot of that has to do with 711 00:34:32,003 --> 00:34:34,738 the timing of certain things that happened leading 712 00:34:34,839 --> 00:34:37,174 up to the murder and then in the investigation after the murder. 713 00:34:38,509 --> 00:34:40,944 NARRATOR: Detectives have an eyewitness account of a van 714 00:34:41,045 --> 00:34:44,347 matching Darryl Littlejohn's in the precise area where Imette's 715 00:34:44,449 --> 00:34:48,585 body was dumped, and one detail stands out -- 716 00:34:48,686 --> 00:34:51,354 The driver was using their cellphone. 717 00:34:51,456 --> 00:34:52,722 TAUB: Within a very short time, 718 00:34:52,824 --> 00:34:55,025 we had gotten a warrant for Darryl Littlejohn's 719 00:34:55,126 --> 00:34:57,761 phone records and cell tower records indicating 720 00:34:57,862 --> 00:34:59,930 the location of the towers that handled calls 721 00:35:00,031 --> 00:35:02,065 that he received at a certain time. 722 00:35:02,166 --> 00:35:07,037 And it turned out to be highly significant, because eventually 723 00:35:07,138 --> 00:35:09,806 we were able to determine that there was a woman who was 724 00:35:09,907 --> 00:35:11,575 calling Littlejohn, 725 00:35:11,676 --> 00:35:13,944 and when she got disconnected, either intentionally 726 00:35:14,045 --> 00:35:17,147 or otherwise by Littlejohn, she called him back. 727 00:35:17,248 --> 00:35:19,883 And so there were these two phone calls that were made at 728 00:35:19,984 --> 00:35:21,351 crucial times, 729 00:35:21,452 --> 00:35:25,388 hitting off specific towers in Queens and in Brooklyn. 730 00:35:26,991 --> 00:35:30,494 It put him driving from Queens to the general 731 00:35:30,595 --> 00:35:34,064 location where the body was found and back again, 732 00:35:34,165 --> 00:35:35,765 right at around the time that 733 00:35:35,867 --> 00:35:38,668 the night watchman puts this vehicle there. 734 00:35:42,006 --> 00:35:43,673 NARRATOR: Detectives have now placed bouncer 735 00:35:43,774 --> 00:35:47,310 Darryl Littlejohn exactly where Imette's body was dumped 736 00:35:47,411 --> 00:35:49,446 less than an hour before police were called to 737 00:35:49,547 --> 00:35:51,448 the scene at 8:26 PM. 738 00:35:53,751 --> 00:35:57,254 The phone records, to me, are extremely important, because 739 00:35:57,355 --> 00:36:01,625 they nailed down the time, they put him doing something, 740 00:36:01,726 --> 00:36:05,495 not just in general, but at a relevant time. 741 00:36:06,998 --> 00:36:09,833 NARRATOR: But without physical evidence or a confession, 742 00:36:09,934 --> 00:36:12,335 they can't link Littlejohn directly to the murder. 743 00:36:13,771 --> 00:36:15,906 We see in Imette's case, um, 744 00:36:16,007 --> 00:36:18,141 that they get really to sort of the seventh inning stretch 745 00:36:18,242 --> 00:36:20,510 in this case -- they have nearly 746 00:36:20,611 --> 00:36:22,179 all the circumstantial evidence they need, 747 00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:24,848 but there's just that one missing ingredient to allow 748 00:36:24,949 --> 00:36:27,250 them to make the final push to the ninth, 749 00:36:27,351 --> 00:36:30,387 and a lot of investigators may have rolled the dice 750 00:36:30,488 --> 00:36:32,622 and gone to trial with what they already had, 751 00:36:32,723 --> 00:36:35,859 but we see them hold out and stay focused, looking for that 752 00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:38,195 final piece to close the circle. 753 00:36:38,296 --> 00:36:42,065 And that often can mean the difference between making 754 00:36:42,166 --> 00:36:43,533 an arrest and someone being 755 00:36:43,601 --> 00:36:45,936 acquitted at trial, and making an arrest and making sure that 756 00:36:46,037 --> 00:36:46,970 person never gets out. 757 00:36:49,941 --> 00:36:52,175 NARRATOR: But then detectives get the break 758 00:36:52,276 --> 00:36:54,144 they've been hoping for. 759 00:36:54,245 --> 00:36:55,979 Ken's callin' me. 760 00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:58,281 The only thing he can say is, "We got DNA." 761 00:36:58,382 --> 00:37:00,850 I said, "What?" 762 00:37:00,952 --> 00:37:03,453 "We got..." [laughs] 763 00:37:06,624 --> 00:37:08,191 It was an interesting case. 764 00:37:10,695 --> 00:37:13,363 Ken calls up, and he says, "We got DNA." 765 00:37:14,966 --> 00:37:17,367 NARRATOR: Forensics have come back on the snow brush 766 00:37:17,468 --> 00:37:18,902 found near Imette's body. 767 00:37:19,003 --> 00:37:21,571 Darryl Littlejohn's DNA is a match. 768 00:37:22,807 --> 00:37:24,774 TAUB: They could have easily have left it behind, 769 00:37:24,875 --> 00:37:26,209 and had they done so, 770 00:37:26,310 --> 00:37:28,311 we would have been without a piece of evidence. 771 00:37:28,412 --> 00:37:32,015 But I'm grateful that it was whatever number of feet 772 00:37:32,116 --> 00:37:35,986 away from the body, and a detective chose to pick it up. 773 00:37:36,087 --> 00:37:37,821 I don't know, something about it 774 00:37:37,922 --> 00:37:39,856 made him say, "I'm gonna take this," 775 00:37:39,957 --> 00:37:42,225 and that turned out to be very fortunate. 776 00:37:42,326 --> 00:37:44,461 NARRATOR: Littlejohn's DNA also matches 777 00:37:44,562 --> 00:37:45,929 a speck of blood found on one 778 00:37:46,030 --> 00:37:49,766 of the zip ties used to bind her hands and feet. 779 00:37:49,867 --> 00:37:53,837 McTIGHE: So at least now we can say for sure this is him. 780 00:37:53,938 --> 00:37:56,339 His DNA is not supposed to be there. 781 00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:58,408 I mean, I wasn't 782 00:37:58,509 --> 00:38:00,543 physically jumping up and down, 783 00:38:00,645 --> 00:38:01,878 but inside I was. 784 00:38:04,248 --> 00:38:08,885 CORNICELLO: It solidifies all of this circumstantial evidence 785 00:38:08,986 --> 00:38:12,689 to the fact that his DNA is there. 786 00:38:12,790 --> 00:38:14,624 How could his DNA be there 787 00:38:14,725 --> 00:38:17,427 if he wasn't responsible for the killing?
