Through dogged investigative work and the application of new technology, North Aurora Police announced they have solved a cold case that's more than 45 years old.
At a news conference Wednesday, Detective Ryan Peat said the DNA present from Halle's clothing is approximately 9.4 trillion times more probable to have originated from Lindahl. Authorities had exhumed his body to obtain DNA samples that now have been matched to the Maurer and Halle homicides. Kane County State's Attorney said if Lindahl were alive, there would have been enough evidence in this case to charge him with first-degree murder.
Halle's murder is now one of a growing number of cases linked to the suspected serial killer. Her family has requested privacy.
