this led in some unexpected directions. mcgee: we knew that she attended a party with some hispanic males, and found some friends there, and liked some of those guys. narrator: those hispanic men, more than a dozen in total, turned out to be workers who had taken temporary construction jobs and shared a house near the murder site. mancuso: these people are undocumented, illegal aliens, and so we have nothing to go on other than if they're telling us who they are, if that's who they are. we got nothing. narrator: the men freely submitted their dna. none of their profiles matched. and they had more bad news for investigators. one of their group fled town right after sierra's murder. ♪ mcgee: we believe that the worker was headed back to mexico, and he had an eight-hour jumpstart on us. you have to realize we had to identify sierra and put the pieces of the puzzle together

that the human genome combined with massive computer power could actually tell investigators what someone looked like just from their dna. detectives believed sierra bouzigard's killer was an undocumented mexican worker. but there was no clear description of the suspect. monica quaal raced to tell her fellow investigators that this new technology could provide that description. i really think that she's crazy. she was like, "you just have to have faith in me." i was like, "i have faith in you, but this just kind of seems like magic." and she's like, "no, it's gonna work." and so she convinced me and then we convinced the sheriff. narrator: parabon got the unidentified dna sample from sierra's case and put it through a process they call snapshot. snapshot is a way to take that dna and ask it questions. okay, if we don't know exactly who this person is, do we know his ancestry? can we say something about eye color, hair color, skin color, freckling, face shape?

paid enough and has never been able to afford to go to the doctor and doesn't have health care and on the back end, the people picking that stuff going into the food are not being paid enough and don't get health care and don't get to go to the doctor. >> and we call them essential workers. remember that term from the pandemic. but we don't treat them that way. they are terribly exploited and you know, food is cheap as you suggest but it is artificially cheap. the reason they can charge so little is because the public, the taxpayer is, you know, paying for health care for a person like that, paying for food stamps for a person like that. we are all subsidizing these companies, in their exploitation of these workers. and it is absolutely unforgivable. as you said in the intro, a worker like that woman is earning the same in an hour, as the president earned station i'm sorry, earning the same in a year as the president is
