Hedgepeth Murder Trial

[Chamtrain]

Anyone following this? IMO seems like the guy is def. guilty. Had family that lived in the same complex, they have his DNA, palm print, and ***** from the crime scene. Took a long time but looks like they will finally get justice here.

Had forgotten all about it but re-read up on it last week when the trial started. You can cast a lot of doubt on pretty much any trial...except for DNA. He's cooked, as he should be.

That said, the roommate stuff was just an incredible amount of bad coincidences for that girl. If she's 100% innocent, she really caught some bad breaks with how the circumstances unfolded that made her an appealing suspect.

The amount of heat she is taking on social media from every crackpot investigator is unreal, I feel bad for her. Dudes DNA is ALL over Hedgepeth, can't explain that away. The slandering of the roommates name, given such a clear perpetrator, is really reckless.

They got him. Pretty impressed with the work done to catch this guy ~15 years later. Hope this brings her family some solace.

I frequently tape the Friday / Saturday editions of Dateline ... 48 Hours ... 20/20. Then I'll watch the ones that seem interesting.

It turns out 20/20 on Saturday night was about the Hedgepeth situation. I had never heard about any of this.

Perhaps there's a way you can find this episode. Note - 20/20 is the ABC version of these shows.

I saw the one on Saturday night, and the one years ago when it first happened.

I too thought the roommate somehow knew something when I first watched it, but was completely wrong on that.

Did either Hedgepeth or her roommate know this guy?

Did either Hedgepeth or her roommate know this guy?

I do not believe so. I think I remember reading that he had some family living in the same apartment complex.

No. He was attending some kind of bbq at the complex. The bbq was right across the way from her apartment.
