Like a Puzzle

It was Fall of 2003. A suspect broke into a woman's home near the Washington State University campus armed with a knife and firearm. He went on to assault and rape her. Several weeks later, Pullman Police responded again to an eerily similar attack in another residence less than a half-mile away. Investigators had a terrified community, and nothing more than a sketch to try to find the rapist. It would take nearly 19 years, and the use of forensic genetic genealogy, but in March of 2022 they finally made an arrest. This episode has in-depth interviews with both the detective on the case and the founder of the organization who helped finally crack it.
