Joseph Karat Parker was 34 when he was found fatally stabbed in his Seattle apartment on the evening of February 6, 2014. The King County Medical Examiner ruled his death a homicide caused by multiple stab wounds. The apartment scene suggested a violent struggle.

Seattle Police investigators collected fingerprints, DNA and the presumed murder weapon from the scene and interviewed numerous people while following multiple leads. A former acquaintance with a documented history of violent behavior emerged as a primary suspect; witnesses placed that person near Parker’s apartment the night of the killing. The case went to trial in King County Superior Court, where forensic evidence, witness testimony and police testimony were presented and the defendant was found guilty and given life without parole.
