## Resource

When Alyssa Burkett was murdered outside her workplace in Texas, authorities quickly zeroed in on her ex-boyfriend, Andrew Beard. But nearly three years after the murder, the FBI arrested another unlikely suspect. 48 Hours Correspondent Peter Van Sant is joined by Producers Liza Finley and Gabby Demirdjian to break down the evidence against Andrew’s former fiancée, Holly. They discuss the damning text messages between them and an unusual expert the defense called at her trial: a make-up artist. This episode last aired on 11/19/2024.
