A Hawaii man has been arrested after DNA technology helped investigators identify him as a suspect in the 1982 killing of a 15-year-old girl who was abducted in Northern California from a bus stop, raped and killed, authorities say.
A trucker found Stitt's body on the morning of Sept. 3, 1982, at the base of a cinder block wall, according to a statement of facts included in the court documents.
Stitt's boyfriend, who had been with her the night before she was killed, was initially believed to be a suspect, the district attorney's office said. No other suspect was identified, and the case remained cold until 2021, two years after Hutchinson teamed up with a genetic genealogist,The researcher found that a son of a woman named Rose Aguilera Ramirez may have killed Stitt, the statement of facts says.
