About this episode
In July 1957, Richard Phillips and Milton Curtis, two police officers on a routine stop in the California suburb of El Segundo were gunned down by a man who, unbeknownst to them, had just committed robbery and rape at a nearby lover’s lane. With only a fingerprint and the belief that one of the officer’s bullets hit the killer, investigators searched for more than 45 years for the man who murdered two of their own. “48 Hours" correspondent Bill Lagattuta reports.
