It seems no homicide investigation get so old that it can't be reopened. In Mobile, the case of murdered teen, Katherine Foster, has been reopened by Alabama Attorney General Troy King. With modern DNA testing methods and state of the art forensic science, expect to see a number of questionable homicides reopened soon.
With the public interest so keen on solving old, so-called "solved", and unsolved crimes in the state, Attorney General King will soon be a very busy man.
FLASH! New DNA technique exonerates parents in Jonbenet Ramsey probe. Somebody else did it. A technique known as "touch" DNA was used to eliminate the parents and brother of Jonbenet Ramsey from the investigation into her death. Could this technique also be useful in cases where there is suspicion of multiple suspects? Unless evidence is destroyed this is a possibility. I've always wondered if there was more than one participant in the Stephanie Marie King slaying. "Touch" DNA testing might be a good way to find out.
If you have new information on an old "solved" or unsolved crime - OR if you want to turn yourself in, contact the Alabama Attorney General's Office at 334-242-7300.
