Early the next morning, the family reported Kathy missing.
It was Kathy's car, which was still parked on the opposite side of her apartment complex.
Around the same time, another member of the family search party was looking around the apartment complex. The buildings were two-story structures with low, flat roofs.
It contained Kathy's identification and other belongings. The purse appeared fully intact, not rifled through or strewn about. It seemed almost like someone had tossed it from the ground below.
Various items were observed and collected, including some quite personal in nature.
Kathy Holly was officially entered into the police system as a missing person. While the blood was being processed, the investigation into her disappearance kicked into high gear. As part of that, police set up a perimeter around the apartment complex and began interviewing everyone they could in the hopes of finding witnesses.
However, there was some information gathered by police as part of their neighborhood canvas that piqued their interest. One of the residents of that apartment complex said he had witnessed something strange around 9 p.m. the same night Kathy went missing.
In hindsight, the description painted a grim picture. But when police went back to the neighbor to follow up what he had said, his story changed.
It seemed like a warning and an acknowledgement that someone knew he had spoken to police and wanted him to stop. The End
Rumors swirled that he was driven by a guilty conscience. Despite the gossip, police again ruled him out as a suspect. For weeks, they continued to comb the area around Kathy's apartment, looking for anything that might aid them in finding Kathy and figure out what happened.
Kathy's family was still also actively searching the area. Her father, who worked for the Federal Aviation Administration, brought a unique resource to the search—airplanes.
The intense searches went on for weeks.
The woman was fully clothed, wearing a coat and shoes. Kathy's disappearance was still fresh in people's minds, so police called her father down to the morgue to see if the woman was Kathy.
And we do want to warn you that the description is unsettling and may be triggering for some. Kathy's face and neck showed signs of a violent struggle.
her death was officially classified as a homicide.
Although pieces of potential evidence were being gathered, the investigation faced a major roadblock. None of it pointed police to a suspect.
And so the case sat. Weeks became months, which became years, and eventually decades.
Then in 1984, a scientific breakthrough changed everything. A British geneticist developed a technique called DNA fingerprinting. The method allowed scientists to isolate and identify variable elements within a DNA sequence. This made it possible to link DNA evidence to a specific person with unprecedented accuracy.
The conclusions did reveal DNA belonging to another person in addition to Kathy, but they couldn't get more specific than that. So investigators next decided to test that DNA against several previous old suspects in the case.
And over the years, North Aurora wasn't the only police department taking advantage of the advances in DNA technology.
