TWO DOUBLE MURDERS FIVE YEARS APART IN OMAHA NEIGHBORHOODS - THE TRAIL WOULD LEAD POLICE TO A FAMOUS HOSPITAL - COULD A DOCTOR BE A KILLER?

"48 Hours: Resident Evil" Saturday, June 2, 10:00 PM

CBS News correspondent Jim Axelrod and 48 HOURS investigate the strange tale of two double murders five years apart that shook two quiet Omaha neighborhoods, and the path that led police to an unlikely suspect, in an encore of "Resident Evil," to be broadcast Saturday, June 2 (10:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.

The killer started by murdering 11-year-old Thomas Hunter and his family's housekeeper, Shirlee Sherman, after school on March 13, 2008. They were stabbed to death. Police found no DNA, and there was no apparent motive for someone to want them dead. A neighbor, however, spotted an unfamiliar silver car and caught a glimpse of the driver. Still, the case went cold five months later, leaving a community worried about a killer among them.

Five years later, Dr. Roger Brumback and his wife, Mary, were stabbed to death in their home. Brumback was a beloved physician who spent most of his career working on childhood diseases.

"Scott and I had a real definitive moment after we walked through that house. I've seen these things before," Omaha Police Detective Derek Mois says of arriving at the Brumback's home with Sgt. Scott Warner.

For the two law enforcement officers, the attack on the Brumbacks was eerily similar to what they found five years earlier with the Hunter and Sherman murders. "Specifically," says Mois, "with the wounds to the right side of the neck."

There were more ties, however. As the police dug a little deeper they learned that Hunter's dad was a colleague of Dr. Brumback's at the Creighton University Medical Center. The trail would lead to the hospital and a medical resident, Anthony Garcia, who had been fired by Hunter and Brumback.

Was Garcia, a man who took an oath to help people, a killer? "I don't know," says Garcia's mother, Estella Garcia, in the only interview she has given. "If he did, it's a totally different person than we're talking about."
