Episode 488: The Murder of Dana Ireland

Dana Ireland was on vacation in Hawaii in December 1991 when she was struck by a car while riding her bike. She was kidnapped, sexually assaulted, and left for dead, and she died from her injuries on Christmas Day. After going cold, her case was eventually “solved” with three suspects being indicted, charged, and convicted. But the evidence against them was shaky at best, and after years of fighting their convictions, they were exonerated in 2023… only for the real killer to be identified through advanced DNA testing the next year.
