Christopher Lee’s trial for the first degree murder of Erin Corwin was finally underway, after years of legal maneuvering and delays by the defense. Erin’s friends and family had gone on the stand, and authorities had testified on the evidence the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department had collected. An expert said there was a 1 in 16 billion chance that DNA samples found in the mineshaft where Chris dumped Erin’s body belonged to anyone else. It seemed like the case was closed.

Hundreds of volunteers and law enforcement officers spent eight weeks and over 5,000 hours searching for Erin Corwin. In the end, the discovery of Erin’s body at the bottom of a mineshaft in Joshua Tree National Park was a big deal — and not just because the search had been so difficult. Without a body, it would have been almost impossible to convict Erin’s killer. And shortly after she went missing, the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department was almost positive they knew who killed Erin Corwin.
