Blind Item #6 - Reader Blind

A number of decades ago, there was a series of horrific serial crimes committed in this large American city. Someone was eventually arrested and found guilty of some of the crimes but even the prosecution acknowledges that it would have been physically impossible for him to have done it all.  The case has been reopened a couple times through the years and is currently reopened now. There are those (including the convicted criminal who maintains his innocence) who insist that race played a part in all of this.

As part of the investigation of a much discussed much televised event that occurred earlier this year, a search warrant was issued for someone who lives in the same city.  Evidence was found connecting him and others to this other case. This involves a lot of potential defendants. There will likely be an announcement on this before year's end.
