Lycoming County District Attorney Thomas Marino believes the case is solvable.

Updated: Aug. 30, 2024, 7:08 p.m.Lycoming County District Attorney Thomas A. Marino says the 30-year-old unsolved killings of a mother and daughter remains an active investigation.WILLIAMSPORT — It will be 30 years ago Sunday that a mother and her young daughter were slain in their home here.

She speculates the motive of Matthews’ killing was love, revenge and greed. Her daughter was killed because she could identify the perpetrator, she said. Marino got court permission to impanel a grand jury in 1996 to investigate the double homicide and two other killings. Marino impaneled a second investigative grand jury in 2001 but did not authorize refiling of charges until the following year when tests conducted by the FBI matched traces of glitter found in the Kramer’s car with those found at the murder scene.

He was held for court, but in March 2004 then District Attorney Michael Dinges told Anderson he was dropping the prosecution and the judge told Kramer “you’re a free man.”
