'An autopsy determined Julie Ann McDonald, 42, had been dead between three and four days when friends found her body on June 11, 2000, in the living room of her house at 75 Arnold Lane, northeast of LaFayette.
Investigators said they believe McDonald, a pharmacist at Memorial Hospital, knew her killer, but they have not determined a clear motive for her murder.'
