EP213 - The Park, the Stranger, and the DNA That Knew the Truth
On a June evening in 2000, ten-year-old Nienke Kleiss was strangled in a Dutch park while her friend survived to describe the killer. The wrong man confessed under pressure and was convicted, while a pioneering DNA technique had been pointing at the true culprit all along. We dissect the anatomy of a scientific injustice, and how this case rewrote the Netherlands' rules for confessions, DNA, and doubt.
