Christopher Wolfenbarger, Serial Killer DNA clue day 5

After 25 years, the trial for the 1998 killing of 21-year-old Melissa Wolfenbarger is finally underway. Melissa disappeared after Thanksgiving that year, and her husband, Christopher Wolfenbarger, claimed she left after an argument and never came back. Months later, her remains were found in bags near where he worked.

Pretrial coverage made it seem like the family had been pushing nonstop for justice—but courtroom testimony tells a very different story. Melissa’s sister admitted they didn’t start actively advocating until 2015, and the defense suggested this timing may have been influenced by a desire to keep their father, a convicted serial killer, behind bars longer. Missing police reports and an undisclosed VHS tape raise serious questions about how much the state can actually prove.

Join the livestream as we cover jury selection, witness testimony, and the twists as they happen — and separate the courtroom reality from the media narrative.
