| 0:00.0 | J. Warner Wallace is a cold-case homicide detective who's been investigating cold-case murders |
| 0:07.2 | in Los Angeles County for over a decade. |
| 0:09.4 | His work has been featured on Fox News, Dateline, and Core TV. |
| 0:12.8 | Now, we join him as he applies his investigative skills to making a case for Chrissian. |
| 0:17.4 | Thanks for joining us at Cold Case Chrissianity, I'm J. Warner Wallace. |
