does anyone recall these cases? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I'm looking for the one where the carpenter was convicted of killing a girl in a mobile home on weak dna evidence and the fact he had cuts on his hands (supposedly from using scissors to stab her).he claimed he was innocent and the cuts were from his profession.
also,the case where the lady was killed in her home while her children and husband were down the st at a neighbors house.she was stabbed with a knife from her own kitchen in two separate attacks (killer found her still alive) and the killer then even took a shower in the home.
just wondering if there have been any new updates on these cases,esp the dna case,since there is so much more known about dna now.
thanks everyone.

1st one is stuart heaton. DNA evidence of today (much more advanced than at the time of the segment) has basically concluded that he had to have done it (the odds are ~31 billion to one that he had to IIRC). I thought he was innocent before, so I was let down to hear it. Some are still on his side though. Here's the thread:

I'm curious about the second case you mentioned too, about the killer who takes a shower after he kills someone. I barely remember this one.
