Overview Back to top ⇑
In 1988, young mother Mary Lynn Vialpando is found raped and murdered in the heart of one of the most historic neighborhoods in Colorado Springs. At the time, Kenda was a Sergeant and the Supervisor of the Homicide Unit, assigned Vialpando's case. When every promising lead goes up in smoke, the case goes cold, leaving it as one of the few that the legendary detective couldn't close. Although forensic evidence was new technology at the time, Kenda and his team meticulously processed and stored the evidence, putting faith in a science that wasn't fully developed yet. During a routine DNA database search in 2018, the Colorado Springs Police Department matched evidence collected at the crime scene decades ago by Kenda and his team. James A. Papol was arrested after analysis matched him to semen found on Vialpando's body. He pleaded guilty in May 2021, putting an end to another of Joe Kenda's unsolved crimes. This final installment of the HOMICIDE HUNTER trilogy of specials bridges the gap between the different generations of detectives, highlighting how Kenda and his team's thorough investigations and precise evidence collection led to detectives being able to solve the case when science made it possible.
