40 Years Later: The Murder of Sherri Rasmussen Pt. 1 | Murder: True Crime Stories

On the 40-year anniversary of the murder of Sherri Rasmussen, we revisit the beginning of a case that would haunt Los Angeles for decades. Carter and Vanessa explore Sherri’s life, her new marriage, and the volatile love triangle unfolding just out of sight. What was initially labeled a burglary gone wrong quickly reveals deeper warning signs—obsession, jealousy, and investigative blind spots that shaped the case from day one. Four decades later, this episode examines how early assumptions and missed red flags set the stage for one of the most troubling failures of justice in modern true crime history.
