In this episode of The True Crime Report, Jim Rathmann revisits the 1994 Newport Beach murder of businessman Bill McLaughlin and the controversial convictions of Eric Naposki and Nanette Packard-Johnston. Fifteen years after McLaughlin was killed, prosecutors secured convictions based entirely on circumstantial evidence. But what happened to the phone record that allegedly provided Naposki with an alibi? Why did key witness testimony emerge more than a decade later? And could modern DNA testing finally reveal the truth?
