If Rumsby was DNA tested at the time of the initial investigation...why wasnt he arrested then.

Beauty and the..

Craig Rumsby found guilty of cold case 1999 murder of schoolgirl Michelle Bright

www.9news.com.au

''Today a jury also found Rumsby guilty of trying to sexually assault and strangle another teenager in 1998, just a few hundred metres from where he murdered Michelle a year later.
The jurors were never told about the full extent of Rumsby's sexual obsession with young women.
He's accused of choking and sexually assaulting a teenager in western Sydney in 2007 and convicted of indecently assaulting a 22-year-old woman on a train at Richmond in 2013 and groping an 18-year-old in a car park at Blacktown in 2019.
Rumsby will face a sentencing hearing before the trial judge - Justice Robert Allan Hulme - at a date yet to be determined.''
