Summary
Joann Katrinak and her infant son, Alex, went missing on the afternoon of December 15th, 1994. Joann’s vehicle with the carseat still inside was found early on December 16th in a parking lot a few hundred yards from her home. Months passed with no answers, but on April 9th, 1995, a farmer in Heidelberg Township found a body, and then investigators found a second body nearby. The bodies were identified as Joann and Alex Katrinak.
Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss Patricia Rorrer. Patricia Rorrer was Joann's husband's ex-girlfriend. The authorities zeroed in on her, and the evidence mounted. The prosecution based its case on hair and DNA evidence from the crime scene. Patricia has spent almost 30 years appealing her conviction, arguing that the DNA evidence was not sufficient for a conviction.
