Police now have two new pieces of evidence in their search for whoever killed Rachel Morin. Harford County Sheriff Jeffery Gahler tells Nancy Grace that not only was DNA pulled from the Morin crime scene, but that DNA linked to an assault across the country.  What's more, there video of the suspect leaving the California crime scene.  The video shows the suspect from the back with his head partially turned to the side. There is no frontal view, but investigators say someone should recognize the perpetrator.      Joining Nancy Grace Today:  Jessica Garth - Chief, Special Victims & Family Violence Unit, State's Attorney's Office, Prince George's County, MD Dr. Bethany Marshall - Psychoanalyst (Beverly Hills, CA); Twitter: @DrBethanyLive  Sheriff Jeffrey Gahler - Sheriff of The Harford County Sheriff’s Office; Instagram/Twitter: @harford_sheriff, FB:  Harford County Sheriff’s Office  Dr. Monte Miller - Director, Forensic DNA Experts LLC; Specialist in Sexual Assaults and Murder, and Former Forensic Scientist for Texas Dept. of Public Safety State Crime Lab Dr. Tim Gallagher - Medical Examiner State of Florida; Lecturer: University of Florida Medical School Forensic Medicine and Founder: International Forensic Medicine Death Investigation Conference  Vincent Hill - Anchor/Reporter for FOX 45 in Baltimore, Former Police Officer and Private Investigator; Author: “Playbook to A Murder;" Twitter & IG: @VincentHillTV    See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

1-year-old Jasmeen Kaur is stalked and abducted from her workplace, subdued and placed into the boot of a car, transported along gravel roads to an isolated area, and buried alive by her ex-boyfriend, Tarikjot Singh. Joseph Scott Morgan and Dave Mack unravel the harrowing story of Jasmeen Kaur, a young nursing student, whose body is found in a shallow grave in South Australia's Flinders Ranges. Delving deep into the chilling facts, they highlight the disturbing acts leading to the crime captured by CCTV, the terror and uncertainty experienced by Jasmeen, and the signs of her desperate struggle while entombed. As they navigate the dark labyrinth of abusive relationships, police involvement, and the physical and psychological traumas endured by the victim, Joe Scott and Dave underscore the grave importance of recognizing and addressing signs of domestic violence.

Tennessee prosecutors are seeking the death penalty Cleotha Abston, also known as Cleotha Henderson. He is charged with kidnapping and killing Memphis teacher Eliza Fletcher.   Fletcher vanished while out on her morning run. Neighborhood video captured images of Fletcher being forced into an SUV. The kindergarten teacher's body was found days later near a vacant house less than a mile from the kidnapping site. Officers combing the area noticed footprints, tire tracks and “an odor of decay.” A pair of purple Lululemon running shorts matching what Fletcher was last seen wearing, was found in a nearby trash can.  Abston, 39, is also charged with the rape of a woman in September 2021, but he was not arrested until after Fletcher’s killing because the state crime lab hadn’t gotten around to processing the sexual assault kit. Abston has pled not guilty.  Joining Nancy Grace today: Matthew Mangino – Attorney, Former District Attorney (Lawrence County), Author: “The Executioner’s Toll: The Crimes, Arrests, Trials, Appeals, Last Meals, Final Words and Executions of 46 Persons in the United States;" Twitter: @MatthewTMangino Caryn L.

When Dennis Rader, the serial killer dubbed BTK, was arrested in 2005, lots of documentation was found by the Wichita police: documentation in the form of his own writings, journals, and an unpublished book manuscript. The manuscript is thought to be a description of the murders BTK viewed as “successful." There were Polaroids of Rader dressed like his victims and in the “state” in which their murders occurred… bound, partially buried, or hanging upside down.   The  Osage County Sheriff’s Office investigators have poured over Rader’s writings looking for links to local unsolved crimes, and the information inside led police to search the property where Rader and his family lived.  During their search of the property, investigators found " trophies" from at least one woman. Investigators also found chains apparently used for bondage, along with C-clips.  C-clips can shorten chains or be used to secure a person’s legs or feet. We know that a pantyhose ligature was found.  Other items found have not been described publicly.  Joining Nancy Grace Today: Tjuana Boulanger- Friend of Cynthia (Cindy) Dawn Kinney Dale Carson– High-profile Criminal Defense Attorney (Jacksonville), Former FBI Agent & Former Police Officer (Miami-Dade County); Author: “Arrest-Proof Yourself; Twitter: @DaleCarsonLaw Dr. Bethany Marshall –  Psychoanalyst (Beverly Hills); Instagram & TikTok: drbethanymarshall; Twitter:@DrBethanyLive Sheriff Eddie Virden- Osage County Sheryl McCollum – Cold Case Investigative Research Institute Founder & Host of New Podcast: “Zone 7;” Twitter: @149Zone7 Dr. Kendall Crowns – Chief Medical Examiner Tarrant County (Ft Worth), Lecturer: University of Texas Austin and Texas Christian University Medical School Nicole Partin – CrimeOnline.com Investigative Reporter; Twitter: @nicoleparti See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

For as long as anyone can remember, Yowhannes "John" Tewelde has been the clerk at the Richmond Market in San Francisco.  He works 7 days a week, raising his two daughters to be educated and accomplished. Less than a year ago Tewolde became a US Citizen. Just 4 months after that celebration, Tewolde underwent heart surgery, then returned to work at the earliest opportunity. The 60-year-old clerk was beaten by a suspect trying to steal beer. It was the second time that day that the suspect tried to shoplift. The owner says Tewolde tried to stop the thief,  but the suspect knocked Tewolde down, causing him to hit his head on the ground. He died after days in a coma.
