Finally! I saw a Dateline or 20/20 episode a while back on this case. Seems like he’s been the only suspect for a long time but they just didn’t have enough evidence to arrest him. And this recent podcast did a LOT of legwork. Interested to learn what additional evidence they’ve discovered.

Jesus, I just started listening to the podcast last week so this feels surreal. Glad there's finally some progress being made.

I just finished the podcast last week myself, and it’s feel eerie thinking this is actually happening!
