Listen to the last episode:

On September 24, 1988, Brenda Sue Schaefer was sexually tortured and murdered in Louisville, Kentucky. Brenda’s boyfriend Mel Ignatow was tried for the crime. Despite the testimony of his ex-girlfriend Mary Ann Shore, who led police to the spot where Brenda Sue’s body was buried, jurors found Ignatow not guilty for lack of evidence. However, six months later new incriminating evidence — Brenda’s jewelry and photos from the night of her murder — were discovered in Ignatow’s former home. This classic "48 Hours" episode last aired on 7/15/2002. Watch all-new episodes of “48 Hours” on Saturdays, and stream on demand on Paramount+.
