Summary
November 30, 2020 / In 1990, Jeff Titus was cleared as a suspect in the murder of two deer hunters after his alibi witnesses confirmed he'd been 27 miles away at the time the homicides occurred. But he was convicted of the crime in 2002, after the cold case team that reopened the investigation discovered what it believed to be a flaw in Jeff Titus's alibi.

| 0:00.0 | On the day the two deer hunters were killed on the game area that bordered Jeff Titus's farm, |
| 0:14.2 | Jeff Titus hadn't been at home. Instead, he'd been 27 miles north, hunting at a farm owned by Gerald and Eloise Shepard. |
| 0:22.8 | In 1990, shortly after the murders, the Shepherds had spoken to the case's original |
| 0:27.0 | investigators, and they'd confirmed they'd seen him there. |
| 0:30.8 | To the original investigators, this evidence exonerated Jeff Titus, and they disagree with the |
| 0:36.1 | decision of the cold case team 10 years later |
| 0:38.3 | to disregard it. The travesty is that Jeff had an alibi, but they had blinders on. It seems |
| 0:45.8 | that they just put the blinders on and go right for him. Even after it's obvious, he had an alibi |
| 0:53.6 | as to where he was. |
| 0:56.1 | But the shepherds weren't the only ones who were with Jeff Titus that day. |
| 1:00.6 | Jeff hadn't been hunting alone. |
| 1:02.8 | He had been with a friend, and the two of them had been together from before dawn until after dust that day. |
| 1:07.5 | My name is Stan Driscoll, and I was a hunting companion of Jeff Titus for 20 years. |
| 1:15.6 | Like the Shepherds, Stan Driscoll had been able to confirm Jeff's alibi. |
| 1:20.1 | Stan assured investigators that there was no way Jeff could have committed the murders. |
| 1:24.6 | But in his interview with the cold case detectives, |
| 1:27.4 | Stan admitted to something |
| 1:28.4 | that would eventually become the foundation of the prosecution's case against Jeff Titus. |
| 1:32.6 | Oh, where I admitted that he was not with me every hour of a day, that's nothing because |
| 1:38.7 | we never were all together, all the time. |
| 1:43.0 | Stan and Jeff had been hunting together that day, but hunting together isn't like, say, playing |
| 1:48.5 | chess together or having dinner together or going to the movies together. |
