    Match! NY - Caledonia, WhtFem 1UFNY, 13-19, Turquoise Necklace, Nov'79 *Tammy Alexander*

    Wow. I have followed this case and wondered if this young girl would ever be identified. This is such wonderful news. Congratulations on this ID, websleuthers! Wow, I am just overwhelmed... Mixed emotions for her family, but so grateful they now know where their girl is. I hope the killer can be...

    SC SC - Jessica Gutierrez, 4, Lexington, 6 June 1986

    Sheriff Metts has now been indicted on charges of bribery, and a retired assistant sheriff has been appointed as acting sheriff. http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/south-carolinas-longest-serving-sheriff-james-metts-indicted-n134096 It will be interesting to see if the removal of Metts will...

    TX TX - Linda Muegge, 55, Fredericksburg, 14 May 2007

    No updates, but Austin, TX news station KXAN recently featured Linda Muegge's cold case: Cold Case: Linda Muegge http://kxan.com/2014/02/07/muegge-murder-cold-case-fredericksburg-texas/

    PA PA - Toni McNatt-Chiappetta, 14, Clairton, 5 Nov 1981

    After reading that article from the Post-Gazette, the now-deceased father/stepfather(?), Sam Chiapetta, seems extremely suspicious. Perhaps authorities should dig up the cement porch at the duplex where Toni's family had lived. "Many things about the case, and Chiapetta's possible role in it...

    Identified! CT - New Britain, BlkFem UP8869, 20-30, Aug'07 - Joyvaline Martinez

    I don't mean any disrespect to Joyvaline and Diane Cusack (the other woman, identified in 2010, whose body was found in the same area as Joyvaline's) or their families when I say that I wonder if the two women were either prostitutes or involved in drugs. When you do a Google image search for...

    MI MI - Oakland County Child Killer, "The Babysitter Murders" , 1976-77 #2

    The program "Dark Minds" on the Investigation Discovery/ID channel featured this case. Below is a link to the full episode on YouTube. Several family members of the victims appear and are interviewed. Not much new information is presented, although at the end the host states that a grand jury...

    Identified! CA - L.A. Griffith Park, WhtFem 725UFCA, 20-28, @Picnic Table, Jun'68 Cheryl McMillan

    I'm not sure if this has been discussed yet, but it looks like the UID has an underbite. Does anyone agree? If the underbite is natural (i.e. the jaw wasn't just pushed forward, somehow, when - or after - she died), I would think it would be a characteristic to look for in photos of potential...

    MA - Convicted rapist Gary Irving caught in Maine

    Gary Allen Irving was convicted in Massachusetts of 3 rapes 35 years ago (when he was about 17). He was allowed by the judge at the time to be free until his sentencing(!) and subsequently fled. After hiding for 35 years, he was found and arrested in Maine: Convicted Rapist Gary Irving...

    CA CA - East Area Rapist aka The Original Night Stalker 1976-86

    And, just saw this link someone posted on the AETV EAR-ONS message board that LE has released another recording of what they believe to be the East Area Rapist's voice (from 1977). (NSFW - strong language)...

    CA CA - East Area Rapist aka The Original Night Stalker 1976-86

    Just saw this article... I hope Orange County and Sacramento law enforcement will get a match with DNA from the EAR-ONS. Cold Case Prosecutors Seek DNA from Dead California Inmates - Los Angeles Times, 3/22/2013 "Prosecutors say they believe the program is the first in the nation to target...

    GUILTY AL - Three dead, 3 injured in shooting at UAH, Amy Bishop charged

    Thanks for posting that link, wfgodot. This is an excellent article. The writer is very thorough and asks all the hard questions, of everyone. Really worth reading.

    Identified! OH - Pickaway Co, Hwy 56 @ Scippo Creek, UncMale 16-30, UP4765, Est YOD 1980-1991, Nov'91 - Robert A. Mullins

    Just thought I'd post a link to a newspaper article about the contact on this case, Michael Geron, who recently retired (sort of) as Pickaway County coroner. He mentions this case and the same info presented so far in this thread. Retired Coroner to Keep Working...

    TX TX - Cheryl Henry, 22, & Andy Atkinson, 21, Houston, 21 Aug 1990

    Well, now the folks at the AETV message board about EAR-ONS tell me that it is likely that the DNA profile for the Houston cases has already been entered into the national CODIS database, and since there has been no match to any other profile, it must not be a match to EAR-ONS's DNA (which is...

    TX TX - Cheryl Henry, 22, & Andy Atkinson, 21, Houston, 21 Aug 1990

    It would have been highly unusual for EAR-ONS to have attacked and killed someone outdoors. His known crimes were in private homes. So, that makes me hesitate to say that Cheryl and Andy's killer must be the EAR-ONS. Also, EAR-ONS last known murder victims were bludgeoned to death. Still, he was...

    TX TX - Cheryl Henry, 22, & Andy Atkinson, 21, Houston, 21 Aug 1990

    So hard to say, I don't know what to think with respect to comparing the composite sketches. But I should add that the EAR-ONS suspect is described as having "light olive skin", which I think is similar to the Houston suspect? It would be interesting to know the estimated height and weight of...

    TX TX - Cheryl Henry, 22, & Andy Atkinson, 21, Houston, 21 Aug 1990

    Yes, it's very possible that EAR-ONS started his crimes as a young teen. EAR-ONS may be the same person known as the "Visalia Ransacker", who committed mainly home invasions and burglaries, although as I recall, I don't believe EAR-ONS has been definitively linked to the VR. But the VR could...

    TX TX - Cheryl Henry, 22, & Andy Atkinson, 21, Houston, 21 Aug 1990

    I just read through this thread, and I'm mostly a lurker, but I wanted to ask if anyone has considered whether the unknown suspect in California's unsolved EAR-ONS (East Area Rapist-Original Night Stalker) could be responsible for the murder of Cheryl and Andy, and for the rape that has been...
