本案讲述了11岁女孩琳达·奥基夫在1973年被谋杀的案件。琳达放学后找不到回家的车,决定步行回家,但在途中失踪。第二天,她的尸体在纽波特海滩的一条小径上被发现,验尸结果显示她遭到性侵并被勒死。案件发生后,警方进行了调查,但由于当时的DNA技术有限,案件迟迟未能侦破。40多年后,警方利用Parabon Nanolabs的快照基因分型技术,根据从琳达尸体上提取的DNA信息,制作了嫌疑人的画像,并通过社交媒体(推特)发布了关于琳达的故事,吸引了全球范围内的关注。最终,警方根据DNA信息和家谱信息,锁定了嫌疑人詹姆斯·艾伦·尼尔,并在科罗拉多州将其逮捕。然而,尼尔在被引渡回加州受审前死于狱中。尽管凶手最终未能接受审判,但此案的侦破过程展现了先进DNA技术和社交媒体在侦破悬案中的巨大作用。
