A 45-year-old cold case has finally been connected to an Illinois serial killer

Still, it’s better to know than not to know. It doesn’t make the victim or the killer right. Thanks to new technology, a 45-year-old cold case in Illinois has finally been linked to a serial killer.

Thanks to DNA technology, NBC News just shared a movie on YouTube about how a family in Illinois can now start to heal. It’s about the death of Kathy Halle in 1979, whose body was found by a boy fishing. Police in North Aurora, Illinois are now sure that it was serial killer Bruce Lindahl after doing a lot of DNA tests.

A tool called M-Vac was used in the method. This tool can get DNA evidence from even the deepest layers of evidence.

After Bruce Lindahl’s body was dug up and tested, the DNA found on Kathy Halle was linked to him. Police say that the DNA test and the proof they had would have been enough to charge him with first-degree murder.

Wikipedia says that Bruce Lindahl killed himself on April 4, 1981, while he was in Illinois performing another murder. The last person he attacked fought back, which made him accidentally stab himself in the femoral artery, killing him too.

Some people say that Bruce Lindahl got away with murder, while Kathy Halle’s family feels some peace now that they know who killed her. I don’t agree. I think he’s getting the worst kind of justice right now, worse than anything he ever did to his victims. No matter what, justice is always done in the end.
