This week we look at how several cold cases from 1976 helped allow for the retroactive DNA collection of offenders in our state. We explain the important role innocence projects play in exonerations, and why some cold cases never get a hit in CODIS. Additionally, we finish up our chat with Steve Gresko, so grab that cup of coffee and settle in!
This episode is fueled by Reno Coffee Company. A local pour over café with a trendy atmosphere, great service, and hip drinks! You can find them on Wells Ave!
