    After brutally raping and murdering a beautiful young mother, this horrible killer had four decades of freedom to live his life and grow old. The legal system fails a lot, but this young investigator's commitment to this case was the greatest gift to the family and ex-husband of Sonia Herok-Stone.

    It's crazy how back in the day cops had to do so much more "boots on the ground" type work and this new detective just sends a Q-tip to a lab and gets it solved. Lol

    The police mugshot was lost. The vial containing his blood broke. This was a ridiculous and incredible comedy of errors save for the persistence of the deceased's daughter

    Two DNA samples and he said he was there. He pretends he's not guilty. Why should there be apprehension about the outcome? If evidence of that magnitude can't close a case, we're all in peril.
    And his lawyer, "too much time has passed." Shame on him. And he should know that there is no statute of limitations on murder in Canada nor in California. Shame on is ineptitude.

      That wasn't ineptitude. That was an evil man throwing anything at the wall to try to get his even more evil client off scott free.

      A lawyer has the duty to protect their client regardless of how ppl feel. Esp if they’re the lawyers that are assigned to them. They too can be targeted by the bar and if they don’t do everything to try to defend, the person can claim that they had insufficient counsel and have their conviction overturned and possibly get off at a new trial.
      That doesnt make them evil.
      Also, if u were to tell me that a cop went after the ex and then saw a burly guy across the street and that’s the only 2 ppl he looked into, then there was a cross contamination of DNA and photos of blood spilled on the evidence- but then magically some random lab had viles bc they called every lab- there’s serious doubt. Just bc ppl “feel” someone did it, doesn’t mean they did. Also, I’ve cut myself in the garage on plexiglass and there’s been no blood on the glass or garage. It’s a quick slice. This is how so many innocent ppl get convicted.

    Actually, she WAS forgotten. The DNA tech was there 15 or 20 years after her murder, and maybe the evidence wasn't lost or destroyed at that time.

    A liar and a coward took a beautiful life and almost got away with it because of some silly, stupid laws. A terrible part of this documentary is when Sonia`s former husband was wrongly accused. What that poor man must have gone through all those years is beyond belief. I feel sorry for him. RIP Sonia. Didn´t think much of the brother but I do like Sasha. Hope she finds peace and comfort now that the beast responsible is behind bars for good.
