In March of 2003, a 20-year-old woman, who happened to be the daughter of an NYPD detective, was found brutally beaten to death in Hudson Valley, discarded on a rural dirt path. It was quickly determined that she had been killed in her car, by someone sitting in the backseat behind her. But despite having multiple persons of interest in her case, an arrest wasn’t made for YEARS, and even then - many were on the fence about his involvement. This is the murder of Megan McDonald.
