(9-MINUTE VIEWING) — J. Warner Wallace knows a thing or three about evaluating the value, accuracy and credibility of evidence, thanks to his three decades of solving as a Los Angeles Police detective the toughest cold murder cases that had gone unsolved for years.

Wallace was so good at solving such cases that for years he was a regular on NBC’s “Dateline” news documentary, with each episode focusing on why a particular case had gone unsolved for so long and what were the keys to unlocking the truth.
