48 Hours

Tonight on 48 Hours, CBS News' Anne‑Marie Green returns to the cold case that has haunted Wyoming for 20 years. In 1996, 19‑year‑old Angie Dodge vanished after a night out, and her body was found days later in a remote ditch. Police have long had DNA from the crime scene but no match. A routine sweep of a local trash bin turns up a single cigarette butt, and a new forensic run finally links the DNA to a man who has lived under the radar. The programme follows the detectives as they trace the discarded tobacco, confront the suspect’s family and reveal the breakthrough that could finally bring justice to Angie’s friends. New evidence, fresh interviews and a look at how modern science can rewrite a long‑standing mystery. Tune in for a clear, step‑by‑step account of a case that may finally be closed.
