A suspect has been arrested in a 40-year-old rape and murder case in Colorado after being identified through genetic genealogy, police say
Dogged investigative work eventually led authorities to Union County, Florida, where Clanton was working as a truck driver, authorities said.
Investigators surveilled Clanton for six days, surreptitiously obtaining his DNA from a mug at a bar and matching it with the crime scene evidence, KUSA reported.It wasn’t immediately clear if he has a lawyer. He has not yet entered a plea. Spurlock said that Pruszynski had moved from Massachusetts to Colorado two weeks before her murder. She had hoped to be a journalist and was interning at a local radio station when she was abducted and killed while returning home from work, he said.
“This is a young girl who was just starting her life,” Spurlock said. “She wanted to be part of a bigger story.” When Douglas County District Attorney George Brauchler told Pruszynski’s sister about Clanton’s arrest, he told reporters that the emotion in her voice was still raw.
