Mary K Schlais was stabbed to death on February 15, 1974 when she was believed to be hitchhiking from Minneapolis to Chicago for an art show. Now, five decades later, the Dunn County Sheriff’s Office arrested Jon Keith Miller, 84, for her homicide.
Investigators found Miller from genetic evidence — a hair found on a hat — left at the crime scene, according to the criminal complaint seen by CBS News. The hat belonged to Miller, he told investigators.
After tracking him down at his apartment in Owatonna, Minnesota, police interviewed Miller, who “confirmed his involvement with Mary’s homicide in 1974,” the sheriff said.
