5-year-old Melissa disappears at Christmas 1989. The only suspect the police have is 24-year-old Caleb Hughes. Hughes left the party at the very moment of Melanie’s disappearance. Analysts collected 50 blue acrylic fibers while searching the suspect’s car. Analysis of these micro-indicators reveals that they are identical to those on the sweater Melanie was wearing at the time of her disappearance. Her body was never found, but the evidence was overwhelming. Hughes is found guilty.
