Donna Perry — Part Two: The Investigation Closes In

In Part Two of the Donna Perry case, investigators begin to connect what first appeared to be isolated tragedies along the Spokane River. As tips surface and witness statements sharpen, law enforcement zeroes in on a suspect whose movements, behaviors, and history raise disturbing red flags.

This episode follows the methodical unraveling of the case — from the early investigative missteps and public fear, to the breakthrough moments that finally give detectives a direction forward. We examine how forensic evidence, survivor testimony, and behavioral analysis converge, leading to an arrest that shocks the community.

Part Two also explores the lasting impact of the crimes: the fear that gripped Spokane, the voices of those who were nearly lost, and the long road toward accountability. This is the conclusion of a case defined by persistence, unanswered questions, and the slow tightening of the investigative net.
