Episode description
Episode 36 Sherry Black
A shocking crime devastated a family in South Salt Lake City, Utah, in 2010. A 64 year old grandmother was stabbed, beaten and sexually assaulted in her rare book shop. Sherry Black had no enemies, and her family could not think of anyone who would want to kill her. Neither could detectives. Sherry’s case went cold, despite there being DNA from the killer, until a very complex forensic genealogy process and a relentless cold case detective unearthed the name of her killer – someone who fit investigators’ profile, but who was not on anyone’s radar.
***NOTE*** "CORRECTION: Parabon premiered its forensic genealogy services in May 0f 2018, and Det. Ben Pender contracted with them at that time, NOT in March 2018 as the episode states
