Ep 172: UPDATE: Serial Killer Identified in the Colonial Parkway Murders, Part 2

Laura is re-joined by Bill Thomas, brother of murder victim Cathy Thomas and Kristin Dilley, podcaster, advocate and teacher to discuss the latest developments in the case.

Join Laura, Bill and Kristin as they discuss other potentially linked offences and a legal loophole that prevents the DNA profile of Alan Wade Wilmer Sr from being uploaded onto CODIS – the Combined DNA Index System. Why is a serial killer being protected?

DNA evidence linked Alan Wade Wilmer Sr to the 1987 murders of 20-year-old David Knobling and 14-year-old Robin Edwards as well as the rape, strangulation and murder of 29-year-old, Teresa Howell. Wilmer Sr is also linked to the disappearance of Keith Call and Cassandra Hailey in 1988. Content warning: This is not an easy listen. Listener discretion is advised.
