Correctional Officer Realizes Victim Left Evidence That Will Keep Him In Prison Forever (2026)

On September 13th, 2006, 22-year-old Mindy Morgenstern was found murdered in her apartment in Valley City, North Dakota. Strangled. Throat cut. She'd fought back — scratching her attacker hard enough to leave his DNA under her fingernails. Police tested everyone in the apartment building. The DNA matched Maurice Gibbs — a correctional officer who lived one floor below Mindy. But the DNA didn't just match Mindy's case. It also matched an unsolved 2004 sexual assault in Fargo. Watch as Maurice lies his way through a polygraph test. See him describe the crime scene without realizing it. Hear detectives confront him with DNA evidence he can't explain. And witness the moment Maurice realizes the victim he killed left the evidence that will keep him in prison forever. Maurice Gibbs was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. He will die behind bars. #TrueCrime #Interrogation #MauriceGibbs #NorthDakota #DNA #PoliceTape #MindyMorgenstern
