From the presser, I got the impression more evidence came to light. What that is, we may never know, but I got the sense it was something that reopened the case not just the crap storm that was going on. It was stated a victim could make a request to have a case looked at again and there is an entity that reviews closed cases at the victim request. I don’t remember 100% if DS Dann said that happened in this case but I _think_ she said the request was made either due to new evidence that had come to light or as part of reopening the case and investigating, they received/uncovered more evidence.

See....this is kind of what gets me.
This 'new evidence' didnt just magically appear. They looked for it.
They didnt invent formerly unknown forensic techniques. They just...looked.
Phase 1: Victim getting paid off. Okay. Nobody cares.
Phase 2: Oh crap we did a terrible job and everybody noticed...now we have to care.
