Did Florida have a death penalty in 1984? It must be unusual for someone to be on the lam for 39 years and never be fingerprinted. I hope he was miserable and fearful all 39 years.
There is another long unsolved rape/murder of 14 year old Rachel Hurley in Jupiter. Her body was found in Carlin Park in 1990.
I don’t know what forensics are available from that case, but an arrest would be wonderful.
I absolutely love the cold-case types of shows. So much work by such dedicated people to bring the perps to justice.
Glad her family can have some closure.
I love these cold case guys who never give up!!! We’ve got so many criminals in this country these days catching them is like shootin’ ducks off a pond. The far-left has made my home a lawless country. Damn them all!
Gavin Newsom has release a press release that this proves people leave Florida for California.
“This arrest allows us to reexamine evidence collected in 1984 using the technology of today, as the case is now considered open once again.”
The killer’s DNA was identified somewhere and tied him to this killing.
NOW - at arrest...
Recovering fingerprints from a body is rare.
My CSI mentor, Eddie Stone, developed the first successful technique in the mid 1970s. The perp outlived Eddie, but both died of suicide.
