Summary

Episode 38 Michelle Wyatt

In 1980, college student Michelle Wyatt was living in Santee, outside San Diego, California. Her boyfriend visited with her at her condo, and then he said he left, locking the door behind him. Michelle’s roommate found her the next day, beaten, raped and strangled. Police were suspicious of Michelle’s boyfriend, but they focused in on a coworker who admitted to stalking her and confronting her boyfriend in a fit of jealousy. Years later, DNA evidence would show that neither of these men killed Michelle. Her case went cold until in 2019, it was reopened by the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department cold case unit – and a detective who would crack the case using forensic genealogy. The killer, he would discover, was right there all along – in the detective’s high school yearbook.
