A woman training for a marathon leaves her house early on a Saturday morning to jog a country road on the outskirts of Oklahoma City. An hour into her run, she is brutally attacked and left for dead. She managed to get to the roadside and eventually a car stopped to help. Her last words were describing her attacker: white guy, blue car. Her case went to the backburner for decades after police concluded that the man who murdered her was in jail for a sexual assault committed the year after her murder. But when a huge scandal shines a spotlight on misconduct in Oklahoma City, it makes investigators question everything they knew about the case.
