CRIME CAPSULE: Suspected serial killer stalks and murders a young woman

It was like something out of a horror movie. A young woman fresh out of college beginning her professional life is dragged from her bed, sexually assaulted  and killed in her own apartment while her roommates are out of town. Stephanie Bennett is found by an apartment manager after her friends and family can't reach her. The scene is brutal, but the killer's DNA is everywhere. Investigators believe this will likely help them solve the case quickly. But suddenly, everyone in the area, which is home to hundreds of apartment dwellers, is a suspect. Finding the killer will be like finding a needle in a haystack. Two years after Stephanie's death, the case goes cold despite hundreds of interviews and DNA tests that were performed on men in the neighborhood. That's when a pair of new detectives, Ken Copeland and Jackie Soles, are assigned the case and go back to square one. They read every single document in the file from the investigation. They quickly zero in on a man who neighbors suspect was a peeping Tom. This begins a cat and mouse game between Drew Planten and police to get his DNA. Eventually, their efforts pay off. But the case comes to an abrupt end, an end nobody wanted because it deprived everyone close to the case with the one thing they were seeking—answers. In this episode, Jackie and Ken share their memories of the case that changed both of their lives. They share their behind-the-scenes efforts to find justice for Stephanie and what it felt like to look a killer in the eyes.
