In this preview of the premiere episode of the San Diego County Sheriff's Department podcast, two homicide detectives, a crime analyst and cutting edge DNA technology hold the key in solving a murder that happened almost 40 years ago.
Teresa Solecki was a woman from Vista who was murdered on January 10th, 1984. Her body was found next to her vehicle the next morning. Unfortunately, her killer was never found and the case went cold.
