Back-to-Back Encore Episodes All Summer Long
Saturday, July 6
9:00 PM, ET/PT – Christa Worthington was a top journalist who ditched the glamourous New York fashion world for the slower pace of Truro, Mass. That changed on Jan. 6, 2002, when she was raped and murdered. She was found by an ex-boyfriend returning a flashlight. Her then 2-year-old daughter was nearby, unharmed. 48 HOURS reports on the hunt for her killer and the many twists the case took in an encore of “Murder on the Cape” to be broadcast as part of a double feature on Saturday, July 6 (9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network and streaming on Paramount+. Watch a preview.
10:00 PM, ET/PT – The murders of two teenage girls on the same California beach six years apart shocked residents around San Diego when it happened. Was there a serial killer targeting teenage girls, or was there a copycat? What DNA uncovered in the case decades later would stun them a second time. 48 HOURS reports on the two murders, the incredible similarities in the cases and the new technology that would lead police to investigate one of their own in an encore of “Blood in the Sand,” to be broadcast Saturday, July 6 (10:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network and streaming on Paramount+. Watch a preview.
