Modern forensics caught up with the Green River Killer, Gary Leon Ridgeway. One of the most vital pieces of evidence was very specialized paint chips found on a victim. That and a DNA profile from a previous arrest led police to Ridgeway. Ridgeway was arrested at his place of employment where painted trucks at the Kenworth factory in Auburn, Wa.
