| Title=Reel Danger

| ShortSummary=The 1991 investigation into a brutal attack on two boys, whose real names were redacted to protect their identities, near a pond relied on evidence fished out of the murky water.

Oswald was convicted of voluntary manslaughter and sentenced to a minimum of 18 years.

| ShortSummary=Pennsylvania, 1984, the torso of a woman is found in a cardboard box. The original analysis of insect larvae by a forensic entomologist led to faulty time of death. The body was identified a year later, when Edna M. Posey was reported missing. Investigators then looked into Donald Ruby, whom Posey had asked to watch her 11-year-old son on the day Posey supposedly died. Prosecutors theorized that Donald Ruby was a pedophile who killed Edna to keep her from taking her son back, and were allowed to present this unfounded theory at trial which{{snd}}coupled with the faulty entomology{{snd}}prejudiced the jury into convicting Ruby for murder. Six years later, proper forensic entomology, in addition to proper forensic analysis regarding the motility of the sperm in Posey{{snd}}proven to be from three men who were not Ruby{{snd}}proved that Posey was killed a full day after the original conclusion, at a time when Ruby had solid alibis.

| ShortSummary=In 1992, the police investigate when a severed leg is discovered in the garbage. Conventional means of identifying the victim are impossible, leading investigators to rely on DNA, forensic anthropology and toxicology to identify the victim. The victim was identified as Norman Klaas and, through forensic investigation of his home, it was determined that local meth dealer Graham King was the murderer. Klaas had been sleeping with King’s girlfriend and gotten her pregnant, and when King found out, he shot Klaas in a jealous rage and dismembered the body. However, King’s friend Troy Philips was outside and overheard the murder, and his testimony sealed the deal. The case ultimately never went to trial; King pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and was sentenced to 20 years in prison.

| ShortSummary=How Illinois scientists solved a 1992 murder case involving cremation. It takes a long time and a very hot fire to cremate a human body, and thus destroy all evidence of foul play.

Not only had the victim been burned, he had also been stabbed 24 times, with two different knives. Police knew that a person, acting alone, would probably use only one weapon.
