Six years after the murders of Julie Williams and Lollie Winans, the U.S. Department of Justice announced an indictment against Darrell David Rice - the man they believed was responsible for the killings in Shenandoah National Park. It was a landmark case, to be prosecuted under new federal hate-crime laws, and for a moment it seemed justice was finally within reach. But as the trial approached, the cracks beneath the case began to widen. Witnesses wavered, timelines shifted, and the forensic evidence didn't align with what investigators expected. Then, a single test would change everything, and the story that had held for years started to come undone. Episode Four unravels the government's case against Rice and follows the investigation to a stunning discovery: a new lead hidden in the DNA, one that would alter the course of the Shenandoah murders forever.
