Blood Justice is a true story of investigators who wouldn't give up until a murderer was brought to justice.
A sting operation yielded irrefutable DNA evidence, leading authorities to the home of a respected navy veteran Jeffrey Gorton. Gorton had been living a quiet life with his wife and two children, but his cold-blooded past was about to come to light leaving fears that there were more victims yet to be found in a killing spree that had finally come to an end.
In 1985, Margarette Eby, a 55-year old music professor, was found gagged, raped, and tortured-her throat slit with such rage that she was nearly decapitated at her cottage in Flint, Michigan. The case went cold-until six years later when the victim's son Mark came upon the story of Nancy Ludwig's slaying. With nothing to go on but intuition, he called authorities, certain that the same fiend committed both crimes.
In 1991, flight attendant Nancy Ludwig checked in to an airport hotel near Detroit. The next morning she was found in the same condition as Margarette Eby...gagged, raped, and tortured...with her throat slit to the point that she was nearly decapitated. Her husband Arthur never gave up hope that the future would bring enough evidence to close the case.
But it was the past that held the clue.
