Justice for Faith

Last October's brazen daytime heist at the Louvre was shocking. Now, nearly a year out, there are still critical questions to be answered. Where did they go? And second, where did they come from? In this series, I'll take you inside the events of that day, like you've never heard them before, through the eyes of the people who lived them. On the pavements, I saw something shiny. You did see the crown. Yes, exactly. Heist at the Louvre, a new series from ABC Audio, available now, add free on Amazon Music. Faith was an enrolled travel citizen of the Hallowas, only Indian Drive. She was one of our own. And once you belong to that circle, you're never forgotten, and you never really leave. For over a decade, the Hallowas-Apani tribe has been haunted by the murder of their beloved daughter. Faith Hedgepeff. To hear the absolute horrific things that were done to her, let's pure hate. Surveillance video from the nightclub, where faith and her roommate danced hours before the crime. A cow's town is shaken to its core when faith is found murdered after a night on the town. These are not going to one way, is your emergency? You unconscious, you see what everywhere. Chapel Hill Police say the 19-year-old's friends found her body inside her off-campus apartment. Her death has been ruled a homicide. The mystery of who killed Faith? Unsolved after 14 long years. So far, there have been no answers. Until just last week, answers finally come to a North Carolina courtroom. Mr. Courtperson, we're going to ask you to stay as the jury reads the verb. I've been praying for this trial. I have faith. Our story begins here at the bustling campus of University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. I last came here for 2020 more than a decade ago to cover a mystery that has endured all these years. It's a tragic story. About a 19-year-old UNC sophomore named Faith Hedgepeth. Faith was a bundle of joy. She was a god's end of my life. She was just a daddy's girl. Faith is always a very good spirit of child. And I just remember that wonderful, infectious smile that she had. When Faith was accepted to University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, that was a very proud moment for her immediate family, for the rest of the community. She got accepted the Ornogade Scholar. She was very intelligent. This is the place that she had wanted to come all her life. People know Chapel Hill for its basketball national championships, for its great athletes. UNC is a really tough school to get into. The fact that Faith got in tells you a little bit about who Faith was and where she was going in her life. Faith and Uniceva became friends when they were both freshmen at the University of North Carolina. She smiled, I smiled, and we were best friends from there. She jokingly called me Unabaluna. So she would say it in a very slow, so the accent like Unabaluna. And I think that people in general were just attracted to her instantly. Faith grew up in the remote enclave of Hollister North Carolina. This is a very tight-knit community. We support each other and take care of our own. There's a general there and a couple of grills and couple of suggestions. That's it for the most part. She loved her people. She loved being Hollister Pony. Faith was very involved in the church, so she grew up not only in the circle of the church, but also in the circle of the pyre while, meaning when they're dancing and singing, she stayed out of trouble that way. We were both interested in health care, serving our tribal communities, because a lot of American Indian community struggle with diabetes or alcoholism, high-team pregnancy rates. She wanted to be a pediatrician. She wanted to get back. Faith was having trouble making ends meet, so she starts working at a local red robin, right? And temporarily she moves in with a close friend, Karina Rosario. The two shared a one-bedroom apartment, and even the same bed. Faith was waiting for some more money to come through from some scholarships so she could find her own place to live. September 6, 2012. And a seemingly ordinary night out is about to take a deadly turn. It's a Thursday evening when Faith and Karina decide to blow off some steam at this popular nightclub called The Thrill. That night while Faith and Karina were out, Eunice has her phone rang. I woke up about two o'clock in the morning and I had a couple of missed calls from Faith. She's notorious for doing a book dial phone call where she accidentally calls somebody with the phone in her pocket, so I just assumed that was what it was. And I went back to sleep. And the next morning I listened to it and all I could hear was music playing so I carried on with my day as normal. Normal? Well, the next day was anything but normal for you now. I got a phone call from one of our mutual friends. Someone had called her and told her Faith was dead. On September 7, 2012, the 19-year-old UNC sophomore was found beaten to death in an off-campus apartment. She shared with another student. I get on the computer and I went to ABC News and Faith's picture was on the screen and she had been found dead that morning. I first interviewed Faith's parents back in 2016 and they took me back to that day that forever changed their lives. How did you find out what happened to Faith? I was at work and one of my managers came to the door and said that I needed to call this lady at the Chappell Police Department. So I called her and she said, "Well Ms. Hitchbeth, I'm sorry to tell you but Faith is dead." And I said, "No," I said. I said, "She's not dead." I said, "You must be mistaken. It has to be someone else." And she said, "No, it's Faith." And when she told me that, I just dropped the fun and they had my head on the desk and cried. I called Roland. When Connie called and she told me, "If I don't faith dead," I said, "You sure Connie?" And I said, "No, not my baby." I lost it. I cried and cried and cried. Back at Faith and Karina's apartment, investigators are staring at a veritable blood bath in the bedroom. Faith was hanging off the bed, her shirt was pulled overhead. Faith was wrapped partially in a comforter that had been located on the bed. And that comforter is a peach bicardy bottle and there is also a blue, re-sling wine bottle. Police won't say whether the 19-year-old was raped, but they confirmed she died from blunt force trauma. Police believed that the bicardy bottle was the murder weapon. They found tissue fragments on it and they believed that it was used to bludgeon Faith's head's path to death. Faith had many contusions about her body and some very, very deep lacerations about her head. There was some blood splatter throughout the bedroom. There was semen found in Faith's body. There was evidence of sexual assault and/or intimacy, and I can't tell you whether that occurred before or after. It was a brutal, brutal death. We think it's very likely that it's someone that Faith knew it was in her, if not close circle of friends, certainly someone who knew her. Faith was a popular young lady and she had lots of friends, including several men, but she actually spoke to the night she died and cops need to talk to every single one of them. I just feel so bad for her. She was in pain. She was alone. Faith was one of those people that you meet once in a lifetime, just the beauty that she brought. When the word came out that she had been murdered, it was a devastating loss. Two days after Faith's murder, [BLANK_AUDIO] The community of Hollister holds a candlelight vigil in her honor. It was really unfathomable to know that someone heard her in such a way. Such a beautiful person, nice person to be taken in such a manner was really a shock. Detectives begin piecing together faith's final hours, starting with a person who last saw her alive. Her roommate, Karina Rosario. Karina tells detectives that faith attended a sorory gathering before the two met up later at the library. So as I remember the midnight, you said that you and Faith left on Thursday evening at some point you go to the library. Yeah, we went to the library and it's my understanding that she had returned back to the apartment around 7.30 and then around midnight her and Karina decided to go out to the thrill night club. We were talking to some of the soccer players because we knew Faith was dancing. I was watching because I had a little chance. Then we were staying by the bar and these two guys in the bus and friends. He seemed interested in faith, so they were talking. This surveillance video taken the night Faith was murdered so it's her entering the thrill around 12.40 a.m. At around 2.00 a.m., you see Faith and Karina leaving the club. Around 2.15, hopefully, that's when they just start wrapping everything up a week. Everything kind of wrong at time. I will worry for me because I got really drunk by that point. After leaving the thrill, Karina said that she doesn't remember walking back up the stairs to the apartment. After throwing up, Karina says she went into the bathroom. What we see from both of the young women's cell phones is they're making phone calls and texts throughout the morning. Also in those early morning hours Karina reaches out to another UNC student and his name is Brandon Edwards. Brandon never answers his phone, so Karina begins texting another man, Jordan McCrary, one of the soccer players she had seen earlier that night at the thrill. Jordan agrees to pick Karina up and arrives at the complex around 4.25 a.m. I told him I was going to come outside because I knew he wasn't going to be able to find him. Karina said that once she left the apartment, she didn't stop to look in the bedroom that she shared with Faith. Karina calls another UNC student, Marisol Wrangler. You see Marisol Faith and Karina are all close friends. I was like I can come pick you up and I'll take you back to the apartment. She's probably asleep. So I picked up Karina and we came back to the apartment and we saw her car. That's when we went upstairs. And I remember it's just calling her name because we knew she was there like Faith, Faith. That's who went to the room and we called her. Karina describes the horrifying moment when she entered that bedroom. I started to see red blood, red stuff on pillows and the ball and then I pulled the sheet down and I thought that she had black eye. I didn't think she was dead though. I thought it was just she passed out. She had suffered what appeared to be severe head trauma and she was obviously deceased. Karina calls 9-1-1. Karina calls 9-1-1. She sounds very upset. She sounds very upset, very panicked. The 9-1-1 dispatcher asked her to see if she was breathing and Karina didn't want to touch her at that point. I don't want to touch her but listen to me. Is she breathing? I don't know. You need to check and see is she breathing? No one had any clue about who did it and the person who did it was still out there on the run. As investigators begin to process the crime scene, they believe Faith's killer left behind the holy grail of physical evidence, DNA. They did a rape kit and found some male DNA on Faith's path. That DNA that was found on Faith's body was also found somewhere else. The Picardi bottle appears to have a bloody palm print and two thumb prints. That DNA also matched DNA found on the blue recycling bottle. There is forensic evidence that could turn this case around but with more than 1800 people on their radar, virtually anyone could be the killer. In our hometown of Hollister, Faith Hedgepeth is laid to rest. It's a huge turnout to support the family. There were so many people there that they had like four wakes. They were all down the roads and everywhere. We just kind of sat there and shocked like I don't understand. Days later, a memorial at our high school. I like to cry because I know she will ruin us the car. Keep the hope in the faith that they catch the person that did this. Here is this promising young student, this bright energy. She had so much potential and she was murdered and no one knew how or why. I think we get so caught up in the details of her. It's gruesome murder that we forget that it was just this outstanding great woman. Back in the investigation room, the list of potential suspects is growing. Eighth new hundreds of people, she was very personable, loved by many. So as time went on, it just grew and grew. So the investigators did a really good job of collecting the information we needed, the cell phone tower dumps, the video surveillance. They were going down investigative paths in their work to try to find the killer but it kept turning up dead ends. The palm and fingerprints that were lifted from the scene, police don't find any match in any database. Investigators turn to the strongest evidence they have so far, that DNA found on Faith's body and at the crime scene. They knew they had male DNA and it didn't match anything in their database so they went out. They went out and they tried to figure out who this might be. They start with the two men who had been texting Karina and Faith that night, including one whom they saw at the thrill nightclub. The same person who came and picked up Karina in the early morning hours, Jordan McCrary. Chappelhill investigators were able to link multiple mails. into the murdered UNC student. Police say some of the men were reluctant to provide DNA while some flat-out refused. - From the beginning, I was trying to help. The police asked me to take a DNA sample and I complied. - Jordan Macquarie's DNA is tested, but it is not a match. - Next, police look at Brandon Edwards. Now remember, he's the guy that Karina was so desperately trying to reach in those early morning hours. And once again, it's a dead end. Brandon Edwards isn't a DNA match either. - So you DNA tested scores of people from the Thrill Night Club, from her workplace. Other people that Faith came into contact with and were any of them a match for the DNA that was found on Faith? - No. - You ended up DNA swabbing everybody on the soccer team. - Because, you know, there was an association. You know, it's an exhaustive search and somebody out there has the DNA that matches. - How many people have you pursued in this case? - Over 1800. - 1800 people. - Yes. - Is that just boggles the mind when I hear the number? Despite that number, Faith's loved ones are still in the dark. - Everyone wants answers, everyone needs answers, especially those closest to her. - Faith's family was really frustrated. - They were hoping investigators would have some leads, but the family had nothing. - One of the hardest things in dealing with no information from the police is that family is constantly asking for you, having suspects. The person's adventures, it's a hopeless feeling. - We're just one big family together. So if it happens to one, then you've certainly included all of us. - We're very understanding of how traumatic it is to experience something like Faith's family's experience, but everything we've said or chosen not to say has been with finding Faith's killer in mind. - I hope in praise no one we know, but it made me some way we met before. - As police continue their investigation, one person who catches their attention is Korean as ex-boyfriend, Eric Ticoi Jones. Police say he knows both Faith and Korean. - Ticoi Jones, there is the ex-boyfriend of Karina, and he had previously lived there with Karina. - So even though Jones moved out of the apartment, just before Faith moved in, he still lived in another building within the complex. - He also had a past with Karina that raised some red flags for police. - So she brought a restraining order against him? - Yes. - Now according to the restraining order, Karina alleged that her boyfriend came into her apartment, began verbally abusing her and pushed her to the ground. - Downstairs neighbor Joy Barker says Faith paid an active role in seeing his relationship with Karina and-- - Faith drove Karina to the courthouse to fill out the paperwork to get the restraining order. - But after the murder, Jones only had good things to say about Faith. - I mean, Faith was the sweetest person to know where I can't believe in it, but I'm still in shock. All right, this is unreal. - He actually spoke fairly fondly of Faith and was surprised at what happened to her. - I mean, at first glance, he looked like a good suspect. - Jones's DNA was eventually compared to the DNA that was found in Faith's apartment. - You tested his DNA? - Yes. - Was he a match for any of that DNA on Faith or in that apartment? - No. - It's another DNA dead end. Jones is eventually cleared. - Tomorrow will mark a year since the UNC Junior's friend found her body inside her off-campus apartment. - So far, there have been no answers. (shouting) - All of a sudden, it's the first anniversary of the murder. It doesn't get any easier. That's the biggest question is why. - We can't move on. We've been stuck for a year. - I pray that we won't be here next year talking about, you know, the case is not solved. - Just as the case appeared to be going cold, the cops released this message that was next to Faith's body and ominous message. Who wrote it? How did it get there? - All part of the deepening mystery. (dramatic music) (dramatic music) - Was that someone random? Who might have seen them out or from the neighborhood? Someone's out there living their life like nothing happened. - Nearly two years later, and with at least two agencies investigating, there have been no arrests. - And it was a deepening mystery week after week, month after month, year after year that was really gripping this community that wanted answers. - Despite having what they say is a strong case and that male DNA, investigators from Chapel Hill PD and the State Bureau of Investigation have been unable to find a match. - Police officers probably have a lot of different cases, but it's like, when is someone that close? It's like, you want an answer. - Over the years since that atrocity occurred, a lot of us have wondered what's taken so long. When will it come to resolution? Because everyone wants answers, everyone needs answers. - We have a killer out there, and we are going to find him or her. There is a day that goes by that we don't look at this case or think of faith. It consumes us. - More than a year and a half ago, when the UNC student was found dead-- - No suspect's going to identify. - No closure for faith sprints and family. - Everyone wants answers, and the media puts pressure on the department. So Chapel Hill decides to release hundreds of pages from their murder book. And this is the first time that the public is able to take a look at that horrific crime scene. - One of the key things to emerge from these documents when they were released was this paper bag that had a note scrolled on it at the crime scene. - What was some of the most important evidence that you collected from the bedroom? - There was a biscuit bag that was from time out restaurant. Time out is very popular in Chapel Hill, and it's immediately identifiable. - Faith's roommate, Karina, tells police what she remembers about the bag. - I was at time out on Wednesday. A friend had gotten me a, it was in a white bag of biscuit. I literally just left it in the bag. - And was it in the bag when you left to do room? - I went in the left down. - And where do you think you are after that? - I don't know, I just kind of just wrote things. It might have just been on my side of the bed, the right next to it. Might have been on the table. And on the bag was some writing that said I'm not stupid bitch, jealous. - What did you make of that? - Obviously, big evidentiary value. - Police find that note and they observe that it's written in pen and block letters. Now, even though there's blood pretty much everywhere, there's hardly any on this note, but guess what there is? That male DNA. - My biggest concern about the note was that the paper bag was clean. There was no visible blood on the bag or anything. - How did this paper bag play into the investigation? What did it mean? Who wrote it? - I have heard different experts discuss that bag. And some have said that they feel like it was written by the person that killed faith. And others have said that they feel like it was planning. - As to the intended target, her say about the note, there were two residents there, and it would make sense, but that was left for one of them. - I think the Karina knows a lot more than she's seen. I think the Karina knows what happened to faith. - Faith's father Roland told us that he's long suspected that Karina could be the key to this case. - 911, where is your emergency? - Faith's family finds her 911 call questionable. They wonder why Karina never mentions the friend who was with her when Faith's body was discovered. - I was in the room and Karina kept walking out and in the room, but I was just telling her to tell him to hurry up, just to hurry up. - Do you think Karina's behavior was strange on that 911 call? - It was strange, it was strange behavior. She never, she never say face name. (dramatic music) - From that 911 call, do you think that there was something that Karina was hiding? - There were questions that resulted from that 911 call that we had to clarify with Karina. - downstairs neighbor Joy Barker told me Karina also have, but she described as a memorably serene demeanor when she exited the apartment that morning. That's the striking thing. You would never have known that they had just come from discovering a what turned out to be horribly brutal murder scene. Was she crying? No. No crying at all. No. And I was outside from the, from the clock until about 130. I never saw Karina crying or upset. A moment of crisis, it's hard to judge whether someone's behavior is normal or abnormal because everybody reacts differently. Faith's downstairs neighbor also told investigators that she heard some curious noises coming from Faith and Karina's apartment before Karina left toward McCrary early that morning. What did you hear in the early morning hours of stairs in that apartment? Between 330 and quarter of four, I heard three thumps. They were basically together. Thumps and that's the right word to describe them. And remember Karina herself said that she did not leave that apartment until 430 in the morning. Police want more answers. Whether or not she is giving us all of the information that she knows and/or truthful information continues to be under investigation. There were questions that were beginning to emerge about Karina and about Faith and what was happening inside that apartment. Police discover Karina's friend spots something on Karina's body the night of the murder. We're actually on the car and she like looked at a finger and looked like it's a small smudge of blood.

They were wondering about the relationship she had with Faith. Is Karina Rosario? Person of interest. She remains a person of interest. There are several people in this case that continue to be persons that we need to talk to. We're dealing with a lot of information and we just need to make sure that we're clear on everything we talk about. How many times has the Chapel Hill Police Department interview Karina? I would estimate over 10 times. Has she been cooperative? Yes. They're trying to figure out her story and whether she's telling the truth. So I called Jordan, and I think as the ex and the coming company was a little out of it, but I was like, can you come and come and come, please? She called me early in the morning, and basically she was saying, please come. And I was just curious on why I was going on. And she just kept iterating, please come. Can you come? Around what time does he get to the apartment? Maybe about an hour. So he arrives around four so in the morning. When you left the apartment, are you sure that it wasn't long? I'm sure it wasn't long. How many do you have to keep a lock in? Did it seem like there was force to entry going into the apartment? No. There is no sign of force to entry. So in your mind, it sounds like either the killer is someone she knew or the door was open, so somebody could just walk in. Yeah, and you know that we live in a college community. And I would have to say just how I was in college. Security is not on everybody's forefront. It's not unusual to find college students that leave doors open or vehicles unlocked. Did Jordan ever go inside the house? No, he did not. He picked her up outside. She came outside the house. So the only people that were ever in that house, at least when Karina left, were Faith and Karina. Yes. One day after Faith was found murdered, Jordan Macquarie says, "You remember something strange about Karina when he picked her up?" Calls in a tip to Chapel Hill Police. Hi, this is Jordan Macquarie. You didn't say a call yet, but I can remember anything. And I just wanted to quickly say, "Yes, I do." In the car ride, Karina was looking at her hand and I looked over. And that's when I remember she mentioned that there was a button on her hand. She looked at her finger and was like a small smudge of blood. And she was like, "I don't know how to put it in my finger." I said, "Yeah, why do you have that on your finger?" And she just goes, "I don't know." "Do it look like it is a fresh one?" And it seemed like, 'cause she was like this, it didn't like smear anything. They just say the same. Why does Karina have a bloody hand when her roommate is found inside beaten to death in a bloody crime scene? Do you remember him asking you about blood on your fingers? You don't? Because apparently you had some blood on your hand, but he asked you about it. I don't know. I mean, I was throwing up red stuff, but I don't remember any blood on my hand. I really don't. Yeah, I don't know. I do know how that was bad on your hand. You've been throwing up? But I don't know. I don't think it was blood. I mean, I think I wasn't bleeding anymore. Police tested Jordan's hard-door, and their initial test indicated that it was blood, but there was not enough to obtain any DNA that they could identify. 2020 made numerous attempts to reach Karina back in 2016 with no luck. So I paid her a visit in person. Karina, hi, I'm Ryan Smith with ABC News 2020, hoping to hear her side of the story. I just wanted to know if there was a chance for us to talk to you. We just want to clear the record on the faith, hedge, path, case, and really just kind of get your story out. Is there any way that we can talk to you at some point? We just had no other way to reach you. I don't want you to -- I don't want -- can I ask you one question? Police found no evidence directly linking Karina to the crime scene. No evidence indicating Karina was involved in any way. We maintain a master list of people. Many of those were those that were at the thrill. Many of those are associates of faith, whether they be from her hometown, her place of work, the apartment complex she lived in. So you DNA tested scores of people and were any of them a match for the DNA that was found on faith? No. It's been four years since Faith's murder. No arrests, no suspects. And the idea that perhaps Faith knew her killer seems to have gone nowhere. But then there's a huge development that breathes life into this cold case. New DNA technology that could actually reveal the face of Faith's killer. This is a real revolution in the way DNA is used in forensic investigations. Nobody knows the killer's name. But could this be his face? put all of that together into this composite to play what this person may look like. - It's been four years since a UNC sophomore was found brutally murdered inside her Chapel Hill apartment. The UNC students killing still unsolved. - Investigators also collected a male suspect's DNA. But so far, there have been no answers. - The police were not telling us really anything about what had happened to a Chapel Hill police did not volunteer any information to me whatsoever. I was like pulling it to, so to speak, trying to get anything out of them. - A lot of us have wondered what's taken so long. Everyone wants answers, everyone needs answers, especially those closest to her, so that they can at least be able to have some degree of closure. - Years have passed since Faith's murder, and authorities haven't named any suspects, let alone made any arrests. - We're gonna do it, we're gonna get the guys or the people involved in this, I promise you. - Desperate for answers, Faith's father Roland turns to a private investigator, Hunter Glass, to take a fresh look at the case. - And when I was brought in on the investigation when I was asked in, I made a few phone calls. For Roland and his family, as Roland explained to me, they were not getting any answers. But I could also understand why law enforcement does that. A lot of times when families are involved, you don't wanna give them too much information, you don't want them jumping to clues, you don't want any form of vigilanteism. - One avenue glass explores is that middle of the night pocket dial that Faith's friend, you to receive from her, the night of the murder. - Get off me, I definitely heard that. - Help me again. - That's definitely a man with a deep voice. - Police think that call happened in that club. What did you hear on that call, and what do you think really happens? I think whatever started, started before it got here, and the club just accelerated it, alcohol, crap talking, and I think that just accelerated it, and then it just got out of control. - What do you think is the accelerant? What's the accelerant that happened in that club that led to Faith's death? - Well, it's written on the letter, jealousy. I believe that may have just, I have an angry person who was very jealous of Faith. - But if jealousy was a motive here, that would imply that there was some intimate relationship that would make at least one person mad. And it seems that theory has already gone by the wayside. - All of Faith and/or Karina's associates and/or extended associates were canvassed or asked voluntarily for a DNA swab. You know, our investigative leads exhausted. Much to the dismay of the Hedgepath family, try as they may, the private investigator just didn't turn up anything new, and the case remains cold. - Cops might not have a name to connect to that unknown male DNA sample, but investigators tap into a new technology that can analyze that sample to determine hair, eye, and skin color, and potentially a glimpse at what Faith's killer could look like. - So we have a Parabond snapshot, which is a makeup or composite of the DNA profile that we can elect it at the scene. - Snapshot predicts eye color, hair color, skin color, freckling, face morphology, and ancestry. What Snapshot is doing is treating the DNA like a blueprint. The genetic blueprint that allows us to predict what someone looks like. - I wouldn't say we would eliminate anybody based on a composite. However, it gives us a direction and or information to further use as a resource or a tool that we have. - This person has dark olive or light olive skin. This person has brown or hazel eyes.

It really did become personal beyond just my role as an investigator. Sometimes I would wake up in the middle of the night and not be able to sleep and I'd come into work. It was really important to me to solve this case. The last big thing. break in the case when a breakthrough in DNA technology led to that composite sketch of the alleged killer, which aired publicly on 2020 and 2016. And since our original report aired, investigators worked tirelessly to put a name to that unidentified male suspect profile. I knew immediately upon seeing the match list that this was going to be a very challenging case and it would likely take a long time for us to be able to identify Fates killer. I'm C.C. Moore. I'm the chief genetic genealogist at Parabond Nanolabs. In 2018, the Chapel Hill Police Department asked me if I could use genetic genealogy to help them identify the suspect in the faith hedge path 2012 homicide case. So investigative genetic genealogy is using a totally different type of DNA testing and many, many more markers. First, we get a list of people who share DNA with that unknown suspect and we have to identify all those individuals and then build their family trees. But there were definite challenges involved because these family trees, once we started building them, almost immediately left the United States. It became clear very quickly that this person had roots in Guatemala but I hadn't been able to zero in on just where in Guatemala. I'm not an expert in Latin American genetic genealogy. So that's why I brought Carol in to help on that. Well, C.C. asked me to take a look at it in 2020 and because this was a Latin American case, it is much more helpful if you have somebody who has the ability to read the records. I took the lead documenting these family trees and doing all of the building back in time to, you know, sometimes it's over a hundred years ago when we're looking for common ancestors and then we begin bringing those families forward in time generation by generation. And so as we start to build the trees of these matches, of this unknown individual, all of them are leading back to two specific departments within Guatemala. That was one of the patterns that emerged. The Catholic Church has done an amazing job of documenting births and baptisms and marriages and deaths throughout time, really going back, you know, three, four, five hundred years in some cases. This is a marriage record from a very small time in Guatemala that I used to help build the trees of some of those matches. So when we're doing genetic genealogy, we're always looking for that branch of the family tree that moves closer to the location of the crime. Carol really laid the foundation with her extensive genealogy work and yet was unable to find a line that came to North Carolina. We were working collaboratively with another researcher and as it happens, he was able to find another line that had been missed. That turned out to be the line as it came forward in time that ended up right where the crime happened. At that point, candidates were identified to be further researched and that was provided to Chapel Hill Police Department and they took it from there. We were able to develop a lead using that genetic information. We used that genetic genealogy and we got to a place in which we used other investigative tools and one of the persons we found lived in our city. Law enforcement was able to identify an individual they believed maybe connected to this. It was the hard work of genealogists and research that were able to slowly painstakingly over the course of years fill in that family tree until we got closer and closer to personally believed was our suspect. Now, after years of searching, investigators may finally be able to find Fates Killer. Once the branch of this family tree was found that led to North Carolina, we knew we were getting very, very close to identifying Fates Killer. But at that point, law enforcement investigation takes over. In this case, social media ended up providing a lead that we hadn't been able to find any other way. Police found a photo on social media, taken in a church right there in Chapel Hill of a young man who could be the person they're looking for. His name is Miguel Sarguero Olibaris and he would have been 19 years old at the time of Fates Murder. The Parabond Nano Labs phenotype snapshot that was released back in 2016 matches some of the characteristics that Miguel shares. Dark hair, dark eyes, and Latino ancestry. You feel like you have your guy, but you have to get his DNA. How was the DNA obtained from Miguel? Investigators spend an entire day following Miguel around without his knowledge. So we waited for an opportunity that we could collect an item that we know would have his DNA on it. They actually worked it like 24/7 until they had the results. I remember calling one of the SBI investigators and saying is it back yet? Is it back yet? And probably 10 minutes later he came through my door and I knew at that point and it was it was a lot of emotion. So as soon as we had a match from the lab, we huddled up as an investigative team and we decided to approach him early in the morning before he went to work. The rest of us were listening through the body more in camera. We just want to talk to you and see if you got any information about it. About what? About the case we're working. Do you know this girl? No. You don't know her? No. You've never met her before? No. Have you had sex with her? He seemed very dismissive and nonchalant about it. It was nine years and nine days to when the crime occurred. What would you say, Miguel, if I told you that that I know that you killed the school and that I know that you were there. What if I told you that I know that 100% would that change your mind? I don't get that. He was arrested right there in the parking lot and transported to the Chapel Hill Police Department. Now you're under arrest, man. Finally, nine years after Faith's murder in 2021, there was an announcement that an arrest had been made. Today is an important day as we announce that we have arrested Miguel, Enringe, Salguero, Oliver's age 28 of Durham. He's been charged with first-degree murder of Faith Danielle Hedgepath. There was a sense of relief for Faith's family. There was a sense of relief for her friends and people in the college community. It's been a long nine years. Of course I noticed this is not, the case is not solved. This is not the end. This is just a beginning. When I got to news this morning, I didn't do anything but cry and thank God and praise God. I'm praying and asking God that everything will be revealed. That happened that morning of Faith's death. I think a lot of people think when there is a DNA match, done deal. He's over. But far from it? Far from it. Why? It wasn't like a sigh of relief because it was still working and it wasn't over yet but it was almost like okay now we're moving on to another chapter. You've got to look look nine years earlier back to 2012 and start figuring out those pieces of the puzzle. Where was he? How is he connected? Is he connected? Despite this long list of suspects, no one's heard of this person. No one knows who he is or how he is connected to Faith Hedgepath. Miguel arrived here with his mother from Guatemala and at the time of Faith's murder, he was 19 years old. Essentially the same age as Faith. So it makes sense that two people of that age in this college campus community could somehow get connected to each other. My immediate thought when this person was arrested for killing Faith was will she definitely was not dating him. And I say that because I've met several of the guys she did date or casually talk to. From speaking with residents at the apartment complex where she lived, investigators developed a theory about how Faith and Miguel cross paths. So we're here at Hawthorne at the view apartments. The night of the murder there was a cookout going on out here. So the thought of law enforcement is perhaps Miguel was at this cookout and at some point Miguel encountered Faith and Karina coming home. That is the best theory that we have right now that fits the evidence we have. So describe to me what's happening around 2.45 am. Well we believe that Miguel would have likely seen the two girls coming back from the club. We believe that he interacted with them. I would have approached them right here. And the thought was that it was a negative interaction. sort of thing went down, they go their way, but it puts him just really feet away from where they were. "This is the best thing we've got right now, yes." None of Faith's friends had ever seen this guy and they knew nothing about him, but we did talk to a woman named Laura Kistle-Ellen, and her daughter was a UNC student at the time and actually worked with Miguel at a local pizza place. Miguel spoke very little English, so he spoke Spanish with him. They just clicked. It just wasn't a romance, it was just a close friendship. Katie, who sadly has since passed, told her mother, she was shocked to learn that Miguel was accused of murder because she hung out with him around that very time. She said he wouldn't hurt anybody. Katie was very clear. I would have noticed a change in him, and there was no change in him. I think what she said was you don't kill someone and then go to work the next day and tell the same goofy jokes. "I'll call you, you'll be good baby." After she talked to him that first time on the video call she texted me and what she said was if he wasn't wearing an orange jumpsuit, you never know that he was in jail. I personally can't imagine any kind of malice coming from this person. Newly revealed court documents show he is additionally charged with first degree rape, burglary, and sexual offense. The indictment says he entered a hedge pet's home with the intent to commit a felony and assault at her. Miguel pleads not guilty to all charges, and finally, after years of waiting for justice, the trial date is set. Miguel Sagüero Alivaris will stand trial in September of 2026. The defense is fully aware that they've got a mountain to climb when it comes to the prosecution's DNA evidence. So on the eve of the trial, they've got a strategy that they hope works. They want to shift the blame to someone deep inside faith's inner circle. Her roommate, Carina Rosario. "Somebody else might have blood on their hands." The man charged in the 2012 murder of UNC Chapel Hill student, Faith Hatchpeth, faced a superior court judge for the first time in person since his arrest. "So a week before the trial, there was a hearing to discuss whether the defense could introduce third party evidence, suggesting that someone other than Miguel might have killed faith." That third party that the defense wants to shift focus on is none other than faith. Her roommate and close friend, Carina Rosario. And they believe that it's very possible it was Carina who wrote that very strange note. So the defense, they were comparing to the note that was written on the white back, and the note said, "I'm not stupid, bitch, jealous." We saw a interrogation video of Carina talking with investigators, and she kept saying, "I'm not stupid. I think I heard, like, yeah, I was drunk, but I'm not stupid." But the thing is, it's like, you hear about it, and you're like, "Oh, that'll never be me. I'm not stupid. I know the sign." "I'm not stupid. I'm really not." "Right. I'm not stupid. I'm not stupid. I'm not stupid." Ms. Rosario. First thing, we're written on that white back. In his argument, the defense brings up something that we had heard from that neighbor Choi Barker, that just after finding her best friend's body, Carina seemed very serene. What's the downstairs neighbor, Ms. Barker, the one that heard all the thumps? What does she say? "I never saw Carina crying or upset. No, I can't say. I never saw her crying. You would have never followed. She had just discovered anything bad." The defense makes note that even an investigator noticed Carina's behavior when he accompanied her back to the crime scene. Officer Matthews talks with Ms. Rosario. He documents. And she's trying to be emotional at times. When Krah doesn't shed a tear, he's more specific. There's a bloody mattress still in the room, and he sees her look at it and notices absolutely no emotion. The demeanor evidence, again, it's subjective, and I've responded to thousands of 911 calls where people were in crisis over my career, and everybody acts a little bit differently. She was met with a horrific scene of her best friend that she describes as a sister relationship, and so I don't think there's any right way to respond to that. The case law in North Carolina is really clear that you have to not only be able to show that there is definite evidence that this person was involved, but also that their client was not involved. "If this defendant wants a guilty verdict, he wants a fair drive, he can't accomplish that, or it's him to accomplish that, by showing the insufficiently of the state's evidence, and not that he's asking some stories and allegations on a person who is not charged." She lost her best friend, they ran out of other leads, and she was the last person to solve her alive besides the killer, and so they just went back to her and interviewed her over and over and over again, and she started second-guessing herself and questioning herself because she was drunk, and she couldn't remember exactly what happened that night. She was just really clear to us that she had nothing to do with us. It's now up to Judge Keith Gregory to decide if he's going to let the defense present this argument that Karina, who faith considered one of her closest friends, might have had something to do with her brutal murder. This inference that Rit says, "I'm not stupid," that she wrote that on the back. I don't know that. I wouldn't consider that a phrase that is so out of the ordinary that anybody can't just use that phrase. I'm going to sit right over here and be fair and impartial to the best of my ability. What I'm not going to do is allow myself to fall for inferences and conjections, and I do agree with, let's say, their foreign state does prevail. After weighing both sides, the judge ultimately rules that the defense may not bring up Karina as a potential third-party participant, and one week before trial gets underway, it's a big blow for the defense. Now prosecutors have to prove to jurors that Miguel was the killer, and that he was the one who wrote the note found next to Faith's body. Will this video of Miguel's show to jurors help make their case or sink it? From the producers of the traitors comes the all-new Hulu original series The Mob, hosted by Parker Posey, 12 celebrities will compete in the ultimate game of power. You'll be doing jobs. Let's go! The dawn decides who gets paid and who gets taken out. You do what you've got to do. Let the games begin. The all-new original series The Mob, new episodes Mondays, streaming on Hulu and Hulu and Disney Plus for Bundle subscribers, turns apply. I just want someone to pay for what they did. To defend that, are they going to hurt or hurt? Beat her in the head, sexually assaulted, and left, dead will still die, alone. And we walked in and there's just everywhere Faith was like someone wrapped in a comforter. And so we just froze. My heart cried out for Faith's family that they are still having to endure things that happen to their daughter. I was right there in court five feet away from the defendant when I'm watching the prosecution tell the jury that the murder weapon was a runbottle. We learned that it, in fact, was a homicide and that she had a lot of trauma to her head. And so she died of blunt worst trauma. And used the McCarty runbottle to come down on her head and did it again and again and again. Many things in movies and all that stuff, but this is a real person, somebody's real life. It was horrible. Investigators would recover DNA that prosecutors say is crucial evidence against Miguel Olivaris. They had this single, male DNA profile inside her body. The analyst who examined that internal DNA told the jury that it was 177 billion times more likely than it belonged to defendant Olivaris than anybody else. 170 subtillion is a one followed by 26 years. He left his DNA on murder weapon of a carnivore model. He left his DNA and his pulpit and his left pulpit on blue recently found on the floor of his body. The culprit was compared to lab item 77 and identified as the left palm of Miguel and Regae Saguaro Alvarez. Olivaris is facing up to life in prison, but his defense is ready to attack. You see television shows and a crime has been committed in someone's wall. Something that says, oh, well, there's DNA there. We cracked the case because I must be the first. Don't worry about the rest of the evidence in this case. Just focus on that because everything else is in no way. Except it's not. During cross examination, the defense tries to focus on some of that rest of the evidence, like no physical signs of sexual assault, or proof when the internal DNA was left. No, I can't determine the timing when it was deposited. So could it have been several days prior? There is the potential. I have no way of knowing that. The swab of blood from the bathroom doorway that never got sent to be tested. Every time we bring in evidence on a case, it's entered in individually. That item was not there. And that run bottle? So when you hear, well, this DNA is all in the murder weapon. It's very close though. Does it mean what you think? The defense insists to the jury those DNA results were not conclusive. And don't tell you exactly who committed the crime. They poked so many holes, and for me, they kind of made my focus shift. But prosecutors counter this case goes beyond DNA. I think the DNA was great, but people still want some kind of narrative that he didn't just fall in from the sky and didn't have any connection to this apartment complex. Would you tell us who you knew lived in Hawking at the view of partners? Vivi A.E. is the Ariel Velasquez. Ariel Velasquez lived there. Hugo Miranda. Hugo Miranda, I do. The prosecution calls two different men to the stand who testify that many Guatemalan people live just across the parking lot from where a faith in Carina lived. That's a picture that my wife took at the moment that when we were making the cookout. It started at 6 p.m. and it went until about 5 a.m. in the next morning. Luis Lopez testified that there were people coming and going at all hours throughout that barbecue. Could Miguel Olivaris have been one of them? No, I don't remember. Luis Lopez says he just doesn't remember. The defense denies he was there altogether. He pulled cell tower right to see if they can put his cell phone in an area at the time. Perfect. Then there was that odd here written note found at the scene. The note was found on the bed at the crime scene, written on a white paper bag. Were you ever able to obtain a known sample of the defense writing? Yes. It leads to the most visible display of emotion in this entire trial. As prosecutors play the video, that jailhouse phone call between Miguel and his friend Katie, Miguel breaks down in tears. Prosecutors contend handwriting Olivaris shows in the jailhouse camera is similar to the handwriting on the note in faith's apartment. It's all in caps. All of the letters are the same size. There were certain letters that seemed distinctive. The defense disputes that, and they claim Olivaris didn't speak English well and that the note itself is problematic. Sure, it's speculation that somebody can break in and block print and that it doesn't make any sense for someone that's already been killed. The prosecution, however, says it all makes sense. Proof against Olivaris is overwhelming. The evidence is loud and clear. And he is guilty of murder. Oh, thank you. But there's one witness that the defense is counting on to muddy the waters. Even though the judge already ruled that the defense cannot say that Karina Rosario committed any crime, they can use her to make the jury wonder, are we hearing the entire story? Do you remember having a conversation with him about having blood on her head? It's perhaps the key moment of the trial against Miguel Soguero Olivaris as prosecutors call Faith Hedge Pest roommate, Karina Rosario. Thank you, honor. Next witness will be Karina Rosario. Good afternoon, Karina. Good afternoon. She was the last person to see Faith alive after the two came back to their apartment after a night out. Do you remember what if anything Faith was doing once she'll got back to the apartment? I think I was just so focused on throwing up and I was feeling really sick. She tells the jury that she spends about an hour on the floor texting Jordan McCraery, asking him if he was going to come and pick her up. What did you do when you realized he was there at the apartment? I got up off the floor and I walked out. Do you know where Faith was at that point? No. Then she testifies about the next morning, describing the horror when she says she returns to the apartment to find Faith dead. And I saw that she had a black eye. And she wasn't wearing anything from the waist down and her shirt was pulled all the way up. To me, she seemed terrified. She stared straight ahead. She never looked at the jury once, giving her testimony. Now Judge Gregory already ruled the defense cannot argue that Karina Rosario had anything to do with the murder. But the defense hopes its questions about her testimony will raise reasonable doubt with the jury. From the time you say that he sat on the bathroom floor and said, the time you left the apartment, did you ever get off the bathroom floor? No. Karina testifies that Faith never came into the bathroom to help her. And the defense wonders if the jury finds that strange. Ms. Hesha was described as a wonderful blooding person. He said, on, that she would not come and check on Scorsaria, who was only a chiefly to blame. And equally curious to the defense. In all that time, Karina Rosario says she never cleaned herself up at all. So in that whole 50 minute time period, you didn't get up and brush your teeth, wash your hands, anything like that? You know, I mean, I was drunk. I wasn't thinking to look presentable for anybody. I was home. Police would later find evidence of blood in the bathroom sink. And when that friend, Jordan Macquarie, testifies about picking Karina up, he says they discussed blood on her finger. And then she had said that she doesn't know why they've blood on her finger. And I asked, yeah, why do you have blood on your finger? And she just said, I don't know. Being asked to testify about the blood on Karina's finger was a nervous, I guess, moment. I've never had to testify. I've never been in a situation like this before. I trust him. I don't see him to be a liar. Do I believe it was blood? No. Did I tell him I was throwing up red slushies only? No. There's nothing that would have caused me to come into contact with blood. So I deduced it to my vomit. The defense-- that was kind of their big thing. It was Karina. She was hard to read. So there was little seeds of doubt that were planted in my mind. Did you feel that the defense at times came close to crossing the line between what wasn't supposed to come into the trial in this regard? I think that we were ready to object. I don't think we ever got to the point where we needed to. Somebody did this. And if it wasn't him, they've got to point the finger as someone else. Whoever did this would be covered in blood. There's no blood on what Karina was wearing that night. There's not a scratch on her. This thing-- a career, a career, a career being involved falls apart when you use your reason and common sins. And first, you're on eyewitnesses at 5, the prosecution resting its case against Miguel Solvuro Olivonis. As a defense gets ready to present its case, everyone's wondering, will Miguel Olivaris take the stand? Have you made a decision about whether or not you're going to testify? Yes, I've made a decision. I'm not going to testify. The fact that the defendant decided not to take the stand is not unusual. Happens all the time. But what the defense did next was truly surprising. Will there be evidence for the defense in this matter? No, you're wrong. There will be not offering evidence and we will be prepared to close tomorrow. Imagine the shock that filled the courtroom when the defense announced it would not be putting on any evidence. I guess, inside. I was done. I remember looking at one juror her face, she did this, grabbed her cheeks. And all that's left for the jury to hear are closing arguments. He beat her, he beat her, he beat her again and again and again until he could get what he wanted. This is a murder trial. You have to accuse someone and set beyond a reasonable doubt. This person committed these horrible crimes, we are here to test the state's evidence. That's your job to make it you a nut. His DNA was there because he was there. Nothing else is reasonable, nothing else makes sense. Some people call it red hearing, other people might call it reasonable doubt. Nobody's coming in here and saying, "Anything was done wrong, then you never should be done anything because they forgot to collect something small." These aren't small things. This evidence is loud, it is clear, it is screaming at you that this defendant did this. There's what the evidence has been saying for 14 years. Put the guilt where it belongs, find him guilty. They have not proved their case, hold him to their burrow, he did not, he's not guilty. The fate of defendant Miguel Saurero Oliveira is now in the hands of the jury. As they go out to delivery, what's going through your mind? It's hard to be totally confident, but you know there's always the possibility of a hung jury and it's hard to get 12 people to decide on a kind of pizza to order. We are following breaking news right now. We are being told that the jury has reached a verdict. What's the atmosphere like in the courtroom? What are you feeling? It's just a kind of anticipation that makes it feel like time is standing still. The jury they were deliberating for a little more than a day. I remember looking at Mr. Hedgepath and he's like a Keela, I think about where would she be today? Where would my baby be? As the jury reached a burrow, yes. I look at one of the jurors, she's crying. I look at Faith's family, they had their arms around each other, they're grabbing Kleenex. It was emotional. Miguel, all of a very circle stand, face the jury. There's a lot of drama as the judge hints the verdict to the clerk who will stand and read it aloud. We just love members of the jury, we now respond to them to be count one, guilty of our security harder. I don't think I've ever heard a more quiet courtroom. Nobody moved. A Durham County jury found Miguel, Salguero, Oliveira, as guilty of murder, rape and burglary. And when you hear the verdict, what was your reaction? Relief? Relief for the family of Faith. It seemed to me that he was in shock that he was found guilty. As the judges individually pulling the jurors to confirm their verdict, I could see sitting behind the defendant him just shaking his head back and forth. What did you make of that? It's not shocking, I don't suppose, but it's devastating, I wish for him, for his own sake and for his families that he was in a position to take some accountability. These 12 people struggled, it was not an easy decision. We kept getting caught on the burden of proof. What ended up being most compelling for the jury? The evidence that DNA, that DNA, and fingerprints. The DNA was found in her and on her, on her clothes, and on the mirror of them. This is someone's life, and so to raise your hand and say guilty is terrifying. Today we have justice for Faith. Like my sister said, the fight will always continue, and we will always have faith. Everybody's been really good to us, and we just want to say thank you to everyone. And please continue to pray for us, we still miss her every day. Sentencing is immediate, but before he rules, Judge Gregory hears from Faith's family. I don't want to address the defendant, I don't have words, but he took from our family. We feel it in every event, in every moment, in every place we go. Those are the persons who took our life, you know what I'm saying is that you didn't have any reason to take your life, and you didn't have any right to take your life. I do the guilt of guilt. The only God has the right to be seen. I do forgive. It just seemed like it was such a senseless and cruel act. We just have to trust God, and she's in a better place than we would ever be here on this Earth. But I want to meet her one day, and I know I will. The jury is spoken, and the family is spoken. This jury hasn't found you guilty of first remodeling, this court will send us you to life without the possibility of a role. Oliverus gets additional time for the other convictions as well. His defense says they plan to appeal. Back in her hometown of Hollister North Carolina, memories of Faith still run deep. After her death, the community gathered to film this musical tribute in Faith's honor. Faith's spirit is still here, it lives on in song, and her spirit is here forever. I have a voice for her. She says, "Uh-huh, I did it." And that's our program for tonight. Thanks for watching. I'm David Bjork. And I'm Deborah Roberts from all of us here at ABC News in 2020. Good night.
