Grave Secrets: Killers often attempt to deflect attention away from their crimes by hiding the remains of their victims. Bodies may lay hidden for years before they are discovered. That’s when forensic scientists are called upon to reveal hidden clues that lead investigators to the killers.
Vanished: An 18-year-old girl is found raped and strangled in a Harlem stairwell. DNA is collected from the victim’s body and is compared to that of other rape suspects being held in jail; it doesn’t match. Another girl with a similar description is found dead, and police feel they have a serial killer on their hands. A man’s name is found from the phone records of one of the victims, and authorities would have to attempt to obtain DNA sample from the man to prove his guilt. Several missing women all linked to a man offering them jobs or money, sparked a search of the man’s hotel room. Authorities found remains of several women in large drum barrels. The medical examiner and authorities would have to determine the identity of each of the victims, as well as attempt to locate other missing women linked the killer. Murderers will often go to great lengths to keep their crimes concealed, but forensic evidence is often impossible to cover up.
