Episode 27: Reesa Trexler

In 1984, 15 year old Reesa Trexler was attacked, raped and stabbed in her grandparents’ home in Salisbury, NC. Her killer left very few clues behind, and police were stumped as to the identity of the teen’s murderer. They focused their attention on those close to Reesa. At the same time, residents of the small town whispered about Reesa’s murder, and placed the blame on someone very close to her. But the rumors were wrong. Decades later, forensic genealogy would lead to answers about Reesa’s killer, and would exonerate the person who had been guilty in the minds of many.
