Link Sought Between Grafton Sex Slaying and Thursday Assault
Investigation into the unsolved sex slaying of 19 year old Miss Lowise Morabeck in Grafton last October 18 takes a new turn as authorities seek a possible link to the Thursday night assault on 22 year old Miss Bernadette Bater. A prison farm trusty, 22, from Youngstown jailed for robbery, admitted molesting Miss Bater and attempted to rob her as she walked near a dark vacant lot on Huron Street. He fled after she screamed. Officials plan to determine if the suspect was away from the prison farm on October 18, when Miss Hornbeck was found dead in a nearby orchard. Footprints at the Hornbeck scene resemble the suspect’s tracks, and muddy boots linked to the man were found under the superintendent’s porch. The case prompted renewed scrutiny of the prison farm and its staff.
