Murderer Identified After 40 Year Search

 

Forty one years ago Karen Klaas was at home when she was sexually assaulted and strangled.  The divorced spouse of Righteous Brothers singer Bill Medley died the next day in the hospital.  It was the longest open case in Hermosa Beach, CA history, but based on DNA evidence recently gathered, officials believe that Kenneth Troyer was the killer.

Troyer is spoken of in the past tense, he’s been dead since the Orange County police shot him in 1982 after an attempted prison escape.  How officials came to point the finger at the long dead Troyer hangs another tale of collecting DNA and doing a “familial DNA” search for suspects.

  1. You never open your eyes anymore when I kiss your lips
    And there’s no tenderness like before in your fingertips
    You’re trying hard not to show it
    But baby, baby I know it
    Now there’s no welcome look in your eyes when I reach for you…
    ‘Cause baby, something beautiful’s dyin’
    You lost that livin’ feelin’

    What? too soon? Geez…tough crowd.

  2. please don’t link to WaPo. They have a paywall but they’ll never get one dime of mine.

    On the other hand, they probably record the number of times they pop up a demand for money to read their precious writings, so maybe it’s worth it for them to count the times I just kill the browser tab.

  3. Trouble is the muzzie immigrants only
    want to “brew” trouble.I will welcome
    any and all Germans,French,Austrians with
    open arms.Real Euro one that is…
