A woman is about to make her final vows as a nun and is taking part in a spiritual retreat on Convent grounds to pray about her decision. One morning, she grabbed an apple and her Bible and walked up a hill less than 100 yards away from the Retreat House to sit on a bench and pray. Just hours later, her lifeless body would be discovered 40 feet away from that overturned bench. The brutal sexual assault and murder of a nun in a sacred religious space would spark fear and outrage. Nearly 50 years have passed, but thanks to carefully preserved DNA evidence, her case may finally soon get answers.
