Description

Could new technology help to finally reveal who killed Sophie Toscan du Plantier? 

 

After prime suspect Ian Bailey’s death last year, Sophie's uncle Jean-Pierre Gazeau said their family would never get the truth. 

 

But now a Garda cold case team has used new technology, called M-Vac, to harvest DNA from items recovered at the West Cork crime scene.


We talk to Jared Bradley, the man behind M-Vac, about how it has helped US investigators to crack decades-old cases. 

 

But first, Southern correspondent Barry Roche shares what we know about progress in the du Plantier case.
