Teree Becker and Cherrie Bridgewater Part 1 of 3

Episode 136 Teree Becker and Cherrie Bridgewater Part 1 of 3

In 1975, 19 year old free spirit Teree Becker was found in a Westminster, CO field, after hitchhiking toward home two days earlier. Police did everything they could to solve her case, but could not identify the culprit. Then, in 1991, it happened again – this time in Las Vegas, NV. The victim this time was Cherrie Bridgewater. The cases bore some similarities, but as they were 16 years and states apart, they were not connected until DNA linked both murders to the same man. And that man would not be named for another decade, when a complex genealogy analysis finally named the despicable rapist and murderer who had snuffed out the lives of these two young women.
