Episode 156: Stephanie Lazarus: The Detective Who Almost Got Away with Murder - a podcast by True Crime with Suruthi & Hannah

It was quickly ruled a break-in gone wrong, and the case fell into the icy depths of unsolved cold cases. But over 2 decades later the truth finally began to emerge; and for the LAPD it struck closer to home than they could have ever imagined.
