A Man with a Past is the second episode of the thirty-fifth season of 48 Hours. The show is a true crime series that analyzes in depth unsolved murder cases or cases that seem incomplete. A Man with a Past is another interesting story that follows the investigation of a murder in Boise, Idaho.
The episode begins on a cold winter night in Boise when a young couple, Angie and Ryan, were found shot to death in their home. Angie was a mother of three and worked as a hairstylist, Ryan was a professional golfer. The community was shocked and the police were left baffled with no concrete leads initially. With no obvious motive or suspect, the case went cold.
The episode then takes a turn as a man named Cory Lee Carriker who lived just a few miles away from the crime scene became a suspect.

The investigators dug into his past and discovered that Cory had changed his name multiple times, and he had been associated with various crimes in different parts of the country.
As the investigation progressed, some of Cory's former associates began to come forward and describe him as a violent and aggressive person. One of his ex-wives testified that he had threatened to kill her and their children and had multiple restraining orders filed against him. Another witness claimed that Cory had boasted about committing the crime.

However, despite the compelling evidence, Cory denied any involvement.
