On January 20, 1998, 12-year-old Stephanie Crowe was found stabbed to death in her California home. Her 14-year-old brother, Michael, and his two friends admitted to killing her, but Defense Attorney Mary Ellen Attridge claimed their confessions were coerced by police. DNA testing revealed Stephanie's blood was on the sweatshirt of a drifter, Richard Tuite, but was he the killer? “48 Hours" correspondent Bill Lagattuta reports. This classic "48 Hours" episode last aired on 6/11/2005. Watch all-new episodes of “48 Hours” on Saturdays, and stream on demand on Paramount+.
