Erica Faith Hagan was a 22-year-old Georgetown graduate student teaching children how to speak English in Chile when she was found beaten to death in her on-campus apartment.
Six years later, her murder remains unsolved.
But it is far from forgotten.
The killer, or killers, tried to set the apartment on fire.
A security guard was arrested, but acquitted at trial.
Allegations of a botched investigation soon surfaced.
Erica’s watch went missing from evidence.
A police officer’s DNA was found on the fire poker because of careless crime scene processing.
And the prosecutor was related to Erica Hagan’s host family – several members of whom were questioned as suspects.
