Resolved Homicide / Wrongful Conviction: Father Ryan Patrick / James Harry Reyos
About this episode
When a brutally murdered John Doe turns out to be a Catholic priest leading a double life, blame falls upon a young man who was in a different state at the time of the murder. A wrongful conviction paints a twisted picture—and is finally solved—in this episode of Last Seen Alive.
This episode is a comprehensive update / follow-up to an episode we aired in 2020 on the then-unsolved homicide of Father Patrick Ryan / wrongful conviction of James Harry Reyos. After more than 40 years, James Reyos has finally been legally-declared innocent, and Father Patrick Ryan's real killers have been identified.
