1
00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:04,320
Speaker 1: Crime Alert. I'm John Lemley. We begin this hour with

2
00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:08,720
Speaker 1: a compelling development out of Hurricane Idaho, where authorities have

3
00:00:08,840 --> 00:00:12,239
Speaker 1: taken the rare step of reopening a cold case that

4
00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:16,680
Speaker 1: has puzzled investigators for more than half a century. Police

5
00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:20,160
Speaker 1: with the Washington County Sheriff's Office say they are preparing

6
00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:25,200
Speaker 1: to exhume human remains buried in a local cemetery, remains

7
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:29,800
Speaker 1: belonging to an unidentified woman discovered in nineteen seventy and

8
00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:33,599
Speaker 1: long known only as Jane Doe. At the time of

9
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:37,479
Speaker 1: her discovery, the woman's cause of death was ruled undetermined,

10
00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:40,400
Speaker 1: and she was laid to rest with a simple marker

11
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:45,959
Speaker 1: identifying her as an unknown. The case was investigated sporadically

12
00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:50,080
Speaker 1: over the years, including a twenty fourteen attempt to recover

13
00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 1: her DNA, but that effort ultimately failed when no remains

14
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:59,480
Speaker 1: were found during excavation. Now, detectives have petitioned a judge

15
00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:01,920
Speaker 1: for a new you warrant and are moving forward with

16
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 1: plans to exhume the burial side again, this time with

17
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:11,080
Speaker 1: modern forensic science on their side. Advances in DNA technology

18
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:16,160
Speaker 1: and access to national missing person databases give investigators renewed

19
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:20,680
Speaker 1: hope that Jane Doe can finally be identified. Records indicate

20
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:24,440
Speaker 1: that prior excavation efforts may not have gone deep enough

21
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 1: to reach the actual burial site, leading authorities to believe

22
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 1: the remains may still be intact beneath the surface. With

23
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 1: assistance from the National Cold Case Coalition, law enforcement hopes

24
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 1: to collect viable DNA samples that could provide closure for

25
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:47,440
Speaker 1: surviving relatives whose loved ones disappeared decades ago. The Sheriff's

26
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 1: office says the exhumation will take place in the coming weeks,

27
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,560
Speaker 1: marking a significant moment in one of the longest running

28
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:56,920
Speaker 1: cold cases in Utah's history.

29
00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,760

Speaker 2: Crime Online John Lemley.

34
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: In Rhode Island, officials released new video and audio recordings

35
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,800
Speaker 1: from the day of the Brown University campus shooting that

36
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 1: left two students dead and nine others wounded in December.

37
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:31,280
Speaker 1: The footage, heavily redacted to shield victims and their families

38
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 1: from further trauma, includes about twenty minutes a body worn

39
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 1: camera video from responding officers and radio traffic between campus

40
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 1: police and municipal authorities. The suspect and that attack, identified

41
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 1: previously as Claudio Nevis Vilenti, a former graduate student at

42
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 1: the university, is also believed to have fatally shot an

43
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:59,399
Speaker 1: MIT professor Nuno Lereo days after the campus attack. Vilenti

44
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:03,440
Speaker 1: was later found dead in a storage facility in New Hampshire.

45
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 1: Providence City officials say portions of the recordings were withheld

46
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:12,280
Speaker 1: to avoid showing more graphic content, but the material release

47
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:16,679
Speaker 1: sheds light on the chaotic police response, including moments when

48
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:21,639
Speaker 1: officers mistook a maintenance worker for a potential suspect. Providence

49
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:27,040
Speaker 1: Mayor Brett Smiley noted the difficult balance between transparency and

50
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:30,840
Speaker 1: protecting those affected by the tragedy, which occurred during a

51
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 1: final exam period on campus. Authorities continue to urge anyone

52
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 1: with additional video or information from the day of the

53
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:43,480
Speaker 1: incident to come forward. In one of New Jersey's most

54
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:47,480
Speaker 1: harrowing cases in years, a Monmouth County jury has convicted

55
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,520
Speaker 1: a man of killing his brother and four members of

56
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 1: his brother's family, then setting fire to their homes in

57
00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 1: what prosecutors described as an effort to cover up the crime.

58
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 1: Fifty nine year old Paul Canero was found guilty this

59
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 1: week on multiple counts, including four counts of murder, aggravated arson,

60
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 1: and weapons charges, for the deaths of his brother, Keith Canaro,

61
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 1: Keith's wife, Jennifer, and the couple's two children, ages eight

62
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:19,560
Speaker 1: and eleven. Prosecutors told jurors that the killings took place

63
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 1: November twentieth, twenty eighteen, and were driven by a dispute

64
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 1: over business finances. After killing his relatives inside their Coltsneck,

65
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:32,799
Speaker 1: New Jersey mansion, Canero ignited fires at both the family's

66
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 1: estate and his own home in Ocean Township, seemingly to

67
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 1: mislead investigators into thinking the deaths were victims of an

68
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:46,360
Speaker 1: arson related tragedy. His defense appealed to jurors to consider

69
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 1: alternate suspects, including a third brother they said may have

70
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:54,840
Speaker 1: had a motive, but after roughly five hours of deliberation,

71
00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 1: the jury returned a guilty verdict on all counts. Canero

72
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,719
Speaker 1: faces a potenti life sentence when he is formally sentenced

73
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 1: in May. Finally, in Washington, d C, newly released federal

74
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 1: records are clarifying the government's investigation into the late financier

75
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:17,920
Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein. According to Internal Justice Department documents, the FBI

76
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:22,400
Speaker 1: found no credible evidence that Epstein maintained a quote client

77
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:27,200
Speaker 1: list or operated a sex trafficking ring involving powerful or

78
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 1: prominent men. Investigators say reviews of financial records, seize materials,

79
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 1: and witness interviews did not support claims of an organized

80
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:42,640
Speaker 1: trafficking operation. The files reaffirmed that Epstein committed serious federal

81
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 1: sex crimes, but prosecutors concluded there was insufficient admissible evidence

82
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:52,960
Speaker 1: to charge other individuals. Allegations of third party involvement could

83
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:58,640
Speaker 1: not be independently cooperated. The documents also state investigators never

84
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:03,320
Speaker 1: recovered a secret client list during searches conducted before or

85
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 1: after Epstein's twenty nineteen death in federal custody.

86
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,680
