Cold case drive to bring killers to justice continues
The sheriff's cold case squad has solved three cases and may have solved a 1974 murder. DNA led to the Ruth Doench rape murder conviction, and linked to Ethel Strayer's 1964 death. New leads reopened the Reiter case. a 1985 Vencill homicide remains tied to a suspect after 19 years. Detective Smith leads the effort with plans for a county wide task force.
