Some investigators dismissed it as belonging to a police officer. But now, TIME has learned, the potentially vital piece of evidence has turned...

In one bedroom they found Louisa Sharrah and proceeded to bind her arms with plastic cuffs and strike her with a metal flashlight. The men woke her young children and held them at gunpoint as they screamed in terror. Then the invaders kicked in the door to the bedroom where Foote, a 23-year-old construction worker, and his girlfriend, Wright, a 19-year-old college student, had been sleeping. Gunfire erupted...
