39:53
In this brand-new episode, "Mind Over Murder" co-hosts Bill Thomas and Kristin Dilley explore the 1988 murders of Brian Pettinger and Laurie Ann Powell. These two separate incidents are often linked to the unsolved Colonial Parkway Murders. Are they related? What is status of the investigation? Is the fact that Brian and Laurie both worked at Liberty Security with New Zealander Ron Little related to their murders? Does new information received about Ron Little represent a potential key to these Virginia cold cases?
WAVY TV 10 News Reporter Andy Fox Investigation: Could these two cold cases be part of the Colonial Parkway murders?
