five years, the state has had five years to put steve democker at the scene of the crime, but they cannot. reporter: anybody paying attention to the bizarre murder case playing out in fits and starts here in prescott. was apt to be a little suspicious of steve democker s behavior after the killing. getaway bag? fake e-mail? defense attorneys craig williams and greg parzych could see that as well as anyone. but was he guilty of murder? no, they said. rather, he was the victim of some detectives tunnel vision, beginning with a sloppy investigation. there was kind of cavalcade of people roaming through this scene that they didn t lock down, tromping through footprints and tromping through the house. and they didn t seal it off correctly. to me, when somebody shows up on the scene and immediately points the finger at the ex-husband,
of attorneys. so, since steve was pretty much destitute, court appointed attorneys stepped in. and right away craig williams and greg parzych were impressed by how steve s family supported him. it s a large family. very educated, very tight-knit group. how uniformly did they support steve through this process? i d say very uniformly. they re all behind him? yes. reporter: but one thing after another. as steve s second trial approached. there was another, huge, surprise. the source of the dna found under carol s fingernails was finally identified. that would be mr 603. coming up the mysterious mr 603, not who anyone expected.
