So terribly sad. I wonder what information her younger brother and the other kids were able to offer. And where were the dad and his friend while they played? Who took an unusual interest in her, possibly staring at her? They wanted her body found as they didn't leave it out of sight. I read elsewhere that someone reported a body that night, however her body wasn't found until the next day.
If they have DNA, this case might be solveable. I just hope it hasn't been sitting in a box on a shelf, out of sight, all these years.
