- Libisema: 1
- In 1978, 61 year old Carroll Bonnet was stabbed to death in his apartment. Police were able to collected evidence which included latent fingerprints and palm prints from the victim's bathroom. The victim's car was also stolen by the perpetrator.
- The car was found in Illinois, but after collecting additional latent prints, investigators couldn’t develop any new leads. The crime scene evidence was processed, and latent prints recovered from the scene and the car were searched against local and state fingerprint files. Investigators also sent fingerprint requests to agencies outside Nebraska, but no matches were returned and the case soon went cold.

- IAFS
- In late 2008, the Omaha Police Department received an inquiry on the case, prompting technician Laura Casey to search the prints against IAFIS (which didn’t exist in 1978). In less than five hours, IAFIS returned possible candidates for comparison purposes. Casey spent days carefully examining the prints and came up with a positive identification—Jerry Watson, who was serving time in an Illinois prison on burglary charges.
- Libisema: 3
- Police traveled to Illinois to question Watson and present him with an order to obtain a DNA sample. Subsequent testing determined that Watson’s DNA matched DNA recovered at the crime scene, a finding that, combined with Watson’s identified prints, resulted in murder charges and a conviction. On October 17, 2011, 33 years to the day that Bonnet’s body was discovered, his killer was sentenced to life in prison.
