Shredded Evidence: The Murder of Julie Snodgrass

When a 33-year-old military wife is found stabbed to death near a U.S. air base in the Philippines, investigators initially suspect political violence. But as rumors of an affair surface and a life insurance policy doubles, suspicion shifts closer to home. What ultimately cracks the case isn’t a confession or eyewitness — it’s a shredded floppy disk pieced back together with tape, marking one of the first major breakthroughs in digital forensics.Sources:https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0581464/https://veritycreates.medium.com/the-murder-of-julie-snodgrass-defb1d1ec4bfhttps://www.osi.af.mil/News/Features/Display/Article/2193802/osi-computer-crime-investigations-setting-the-pace-then-and-now/https://www.osi.af.mil/News/Photos/igphoto/2002303675/https://www.stripes.com/news/2013-06-29/recounting-us-militarys-last-days-in-the-philippines-1840951.htmlhttps://www.csoonline.com/article/512727/investigations-forensics-computer-forensics-investigations-body-of-evidence.htmlhttps://militaryjusticeforall.com/2005/08/03/forensic-files-premiered-shear-luck-military-spouse-found-stabbed-to-death-near-clark-air-force-base-in-the-philippines-august-3-2005/https://militaryjusticeforall.com/1991/02/26/joseph-snodgrass-us-air-force-hired-hitmen-to-murder-wife-julie-at-clark-air-force-base-in-the-philippines-for-the-400000-life-insurance-payout-1991/This Week’s Episode Brought To You By:Shopify - $1 per month trial - http://shopify.com/lovemurderHers - Personalized, affordable plans for weight loss, hair, and anxiety - forhers.com/LOVEMURDERMint Mobile – Unlimited premium wireless for $15/month.
