With the case all but settled, let's take a look at where the Beatrice 6 is at and where it's been through the eyes of two journalists.

In Episode Four of Revisiting 'Presumed Guilty,' we walk through the evidence that cleared the Beatrice 6, which helped free the remaining three from prison and allowed the police to catch Helen Wilson's true killer.

Additionally, we will find out that there are still people who believe, despite the DNA testing, that the Beatrice 6 were still responsible for Wilson's rape and murder.

From prosecution to prison, Episode Three of Revisiting 'Presumed Guilty" watches at Burt Searcey's case comes into the courtroom. At the end of Episode Two, Searcey had all of the Beatrice 6 in jail. Let's dive in.

Today's episode of the Revisiting 'Presumed Guilty' series details Burt Searcey, a persistent detective who turned up the heat on a cold case in Beatrice, Nebraska.

A decade ago, the Journal Star produced "Presumed Guilty," an eight-day series telling the story of a 1985 murder in Beatrice and the troubled investigation that led to the wrongful conviction of six men and women.

The group known as the Beatrice 6 collectively spent more than 70 years in prison before new DNA testing exonerated them in 2008.

The botched investigation and wrongful convictions resulted in a judgment of more than $28 million that still looms over the heads of Gage County taxpayers and continues to make headlines to this day.

For the next five days, the Journal Star revisits this important story in a new way. Come back each day through Thursday for the next episode.

Ten years after the publication of "Presumed Guilty" — and almost 35 years after Helen Wilson’s death — the story of the Beatrice 6 remains a riveting tale of crime, justice and injustice. Follow the podcast today through Thursday and read the original series to understand a story that resonates today.
