Trial by Fire
A house erupted in flames on a cold January night, killing one person and injuring another. The survivor blamed a kerosene heater but the evidence at the scene did not support her story, and she was charged with arson and murder. It would take a nationally known fire investigator to determine what happened, and who was responsible.

Marked for Life

Up in Smoke
When an elderly couple died in a suspicious house fire, their son became the prime suspect.

Soiled Plan
A mother of two young children went missing and, less than a day later, her body was found.

When hunters reported finding a skull in a Texas canyon, police find bits of clothing, a woman's shoe, some small bones and a strand of hair.

Now all they had to do was find her killer.

One for the Road
A married couple decided to escape the cold of winter with a mini-vacation in Key West.

Tagging a Suspect
Bombings are difficult to solve, because the perpetrator isn't usually at the scene, and the evidence goes up in smoke. But there are clues if investigators know where to look. In this case pieces of plastic the size of grains of sand, held the key to a man's murder.

Tight-Fitting Genes
A behavioral profile is helpful in a murder investigation, but it's not a road map to the killer. One such profile caused the Baton Rouge Police Department to search for the wrong man. They might not have made an arrest, had it not been for a DNA picture of the suspect, painted by a molecular biologist. [also marked as S10:E15]
