Season 3 Cold Blood Episode GuideISLAND OF LIES Lower Puna, Big Island, Hawaii, is a sun-kissed tropical playground drawing thousands of tourists. But in the shadows lurks another story of drugs, crime, and brutal violence. The two worlds collide on Christmas Eve 1991 when 23-year-old tourist Dana Ireland takes a bike ride through paradise that ends in tragedy. Hit by a car, raped, and left for dead on a remote trail, Dana's murder devastates her family and sends ripples of fear throughout the state. Police investigate a murky world few tourists ever see but come up empty. From the get-go, the police investigation is fraught: the crime scene evidence is messy, forensic technology can't connect the dots, and most suspects or witnesses are either tight-lipped or flat-out lying. When Dana's father, furious with the police's lack of results, posts a $28,000 reward for any leads, lowlife tipsters come crawling out of the woodwork and overwhelm police with false information. Lead Detective Steve Guillermo is certain of only one fact: a small car struck Dana's bike. The search for this vehicle takes over six years but upon finding it, Guillermo starts to untangle the web of lies. Three weeks before a statue of limitations ends on the prime suspects, Guillermo gets a break that closes the case for good. |
