An arrest, two trials, and a heartbroken father.

After Cara Knott was murdered in December of 1986 police honed in on a suspect, one of their own, California Highway Patrolman, Craig Peyer.

Nineteen days after the murder Peyer was arrested but it would take two trials before a jury finally rendered a verdict. 

For some it was hard to believe a “good cop” could commit such a heinous crime. 

In the aftermath of Cara’s murder, her father, Sam Knott fought for  major changes in the criminal justice system.
