  • A Witness Solves a Cold Case DNA Couldn't Crack | Murder of Rayna Rison
    Dec 16 2024
    In recent years, cold cases that were solved through advances in science have been the main focus of popular documentary television shows such as Forensic Files and The New Detectives.
    These shows highlight the unwavering precision of DNA evidence, often a stark contrast to the shaky, unreliable accounts of human witnesses. Science, after all, doesn’t forget or misremember.

    But for every case where DNA delivers justice, there are many where crafty criminals find ways to outmaneuver it.Some killers wear gloves, wiping away fingerprints before they can betray them. Others destroy bodies to erase the telltale signs of their crimes, or move them far from the scene, creating a labyrinth for investigators to untangle.

    And sometimes, they don’t even need to be smart—luck, decay, or the chaos of time does the dirty work, erasing evidence before anyone can even begin to collect it.When physical evidence fails, investigators must often turn to a far older, messier source of truth: the people!But people lie. They forget. They’re afraid. And sometimes, misplaced loyalty can make them guard the secrets of the guilty.

    Yet, in the most unexpected of cases, time itself becomes an investigator. Circumstances shift. Consciences crack. And voices that were once silent—or deemed unreliable—suddenly rise to solve the unsolvable. That’s exactly what happened in the 1993 murder of Rayna Rison.
