You look back at that now, and certainly when reviewing the case and think that that's not the way to run a homicide case.

And, you know, really, I think there was a lot of top-down management and not handing this over to investigators and letting them run with the ball.

People that investigate cases every day, sometimes they need room to work. If there's one thing

that case taught me in the review was let your good people do their job. In the last episode

the group of boys? I don't think so.

So let's recap potential suspects. We have the young grave robbers, one of whom was Susie's

ex-boyfriend. She was allegedly to testify against him in court. We have Steve Garrison,

There's Gerald Carnahan, the Springfield businessman who murdered Beauty Queen Jackie Johns.

And there's Robert Craig Cox, the former Army Ranger convicted for the murder of Sharon Zellers.

None of these men have been convicted of the kidnappings of Susie, Stacey, and Cheryl.
