Episode 146 Sharon Hammack and Dusty Shuck Part 1 of 2

In mid 1990s Grand Rapids, Michigan, someone was killing sex workers. Sharon Hammack, a mother of two, was hogtied, stabbed, strangled, raped, and dumped on the side of a road. Despite many suspects, her case remained unsolved; all investigators had to go on was semen left behind by Sharon’s killer. A DNA profile from the semen was entered into CODIS, and while it did not identify Sharon’s killer…it connected her case to a murder 10 years later, in which Dusty Shuck was stabbed and dumped on the side of a road. It would take IGG to figure out who the common thread was in the two cases… and it did so just in time.
