27 Years

After 27 years, police had gathered enough evidence against Rick and John Riffe. The investigators finally bought plane tickets to Alaska to make the arrest, but John had died a week before. Rick, on the other hand, wasn’t so lucky. He was arrested and was sentenced to 103 years in the penitentiary. In the trial, it was evident that nobody was on the defense’s side. The only ones with Rick was his team of attorneys.

James “Richard” Layne

The bloody body of Layne was found in a motel room in Alabama in 1989. At that time, police couldn’t collect evidence except for the fingerprints found on an empty beer can. With no leads, the case didn’t move for years. In 2004, a detective decided to reinvestigate and put together facts on his own. He looked back on the notes collected and noticed something different.
