The most expensive and extensive manhunt in Italian history starts with a single clue.

Join us as we dive into this chilling true crime case where the police, led by Detective Letizia Ruggeri, were forced to test over 19,000 men in the largest genetic search operation ever conducted in Italy. Discover the shocking twists—from the initial misleading arrest of a foreign worker to the incredible forensic breakthrough that linked the killer to a deceased local bus driver's secret family life.

Find out how the DNA Trap ultimately exposed Massimo Bossetti, a killer who thought he was hidden forever. This documentary details the desperate search, the scientific genius, and the emotional justice served in the unforgettable Yara Gambirasio murder case.
