The segment is entitled "Terror In Telluride" and here are some things the segment contained that I don't think have been mentioned on the forum before:

-Eva, it seems, was on the receiving end of a lot of bad luck. The town of Telluride is very small. There were, however, 8,000 visitors that weekend for a music festival. One of which, was Frank Marquis, the murderer.

-One of the Colorado police officers flew to New York state to talk with one of Marquis' acquaintances, who told him that Marquis threw some clothing out the window on their ride to Santa Fe back from Telluride. The distance between the two cities is 300 miles. Despite that, police miraculously managed to pinpoint the location the clothing was discarded at. A single strand of Eva's hair turned up on the clothing and was instrumental in being linked to Marquis.

-The second story in this episode is "Signature of a Killer" chronicling the 1974 murder of 20-year-old Taylor Courtney of Phoneix, Arizona. He was violently killed with blood splattering everywhere and had his genitals cut off. The murderer was one of his high school friends whose motive was because he falsely believed that Taylor was having an affair with his ex wife :(

It also stated that Eva's husband built a shrine in honor of her memory. I'm not quite sure what I think of his insistance that some of his brothers were involved in this, but the husband is really a remarkable man. His determination to find Eva's killer and standing by his father when all of his siblings were turning on him is nothing short of remarkable.
