All right, the man you just heard speaking was Tom Hetrick. And his sister, Peggy Hetrick, was murdered in Fort Collins, Colorado, back in 1987. And the thing is, there is still plenty that can be done to solve this case. The problem is the people who are in charge right now, who have the case, aren't doing what needs to be done to solve it. But our crime junkies know what helps with that, right?

A little bit of pressure, obviously. And a lot of noise. And so the reason we went on tour, the reason we're bringing this story again is we want to tell people why they should be making noise, why they should be straight up mad. Not just on behalf of Tom and Peggy, but so many people in our story. And it's a story that starts on February 11th, 1987.

That's when a guy named Woody is bicycling to work. It's like 7 a.m. And even though it's February in Fort Collins, Colorado, like there's no snow on the ground, but it's cold. So I imagine he's just like head down, like pedaling, kind of in the zone where you like, you know, zone out a little bit. Yeah. But then something catches his attention in this field.

And when he looks down, he sees this splash of red. But he realizes it's not just red. This is blood. And so forget work. He has to call police. And when they show up, there is this hundred foot long trail of blood from that splash of blood by the curb all the way to the middle of the field. And that's where they find the body of a woman. Now, she's laying face up. Her arms are over her head.

Her bra and her shirt have been pulled up. Her pants and her underwear have been pulled down. And they can't see what's causing the blood. They suspect that she has some kind of wound to her back, but they won't know at the moment. What they can see is that one of her nipples has been removed. But everything else is still on her.

I mean, her clothes, she's still got her purse like slung over her shoulder and everything is inside it, including her checkbook, which is how they realize she's 37-year-old Peggy Hetrick. Now, by 9 a.m., this field is a frenzy with officers.

One of the people on the scene that day, Sergeant Ray Martinez, he said when he showed up, he was surprised to see basically all of Fort Collins Police Department there on the scene. He's like, this was an all hands on deck situation. The problem is, in 1987, not all of those hands were gloved. But when they actually touch her and turn her over, they see that they were correct.
