They had airplanes in the air that were doing searches and stuff for her and checking the rivers and checking around the area and seeing if they could find anywhere she may have gone.
The water was cold being April and March in the Chicagoland area, you know, so there wasn't a ton of decomposition, but it was covered in mud. You know, she'd already started to go through the post-mortem processes, so she was not in great shape.
He wasn't able to because of the state of decomposition at that point. And again, mostly because of the swelling and bruising. But the clothing, they said, matched hers. And so basically the clothing and then the blood typing, when it came back, they were able to identify her through her blood and I believe dental work.
There was some bruising to her face that looked like she had been punched. The initial autopsy, they talk about a small puncture wound in the left side of her neck and in the left side of her sweater that somebody had pushed a ice pick type weapon up to her neck type of thing. There was a small mark there on her neck.
I thought they said cause of death was strangulation, asphyxiation, so she was strangled to death.
We think she was found fairly close to where she was ultimately killed.
It went cold rather quick. We really didn't have any idea of who would have done this. There was a lot of speculation as far as boyfriend was a possibility, the other associates were possibilities, co-workers were possibilities, and all those people were fairly quickly ruled out.
It was really quiet for a long time. There wasn't a lot of new information available.
So some of the stuff we had tested at that time showed that there was a mixture of DNA present in some of the swabbings, but the technology wasn't there to separate that stuff and figure out who was who with it.
In the 2000s, they went back and got DNA samples from the boyfriend. They got DNA samples from her boss. And they retest the stuff compared to some of the evidence that they have.
Something would spark up and then they would test it and they'd get negative results. And then it would just kind of go cold again as fast as it heated back up.
She was hanging out with some friends. She had walked over to a laundromat that was about a block away to buy some soda, and she was never heard from again.
It looked like somebody had staged it to look like she had been hit by a car. She was laying like on the outside of a bridge curve in the snowbank. So she was laying in the snow alongside the road.
So that was a whole case of theirs that had been sitting on their desk for the same as ours. You know, it's just one of those that would work and they didn't have any evidence to tie anybody to it.
The Lyle Police Department reopened one of their cold closings in 2019.
Since then, I believe that like Ancestry.com and 23andMe and these are no longer required to give information over to the police without search warrants and stuff. But at this time, it was like, hey, can you guys find this family in your database? And they were able to trace this back. to a family that lived in the area during the 1970s.
He was really connected to the skydiving community. He worked as a meter reader for the gas company for a while, which put him in this area. There was a factory here in town that we were able to track back to find employment records that he worked in town here in North Aurora. So he kind of bounced around from job to job.
As they dug into it a little bit further, they found out that Bruce Lindahl had actually died committing another murder in Naperville in 1981. So at that point, they're like, this may be our guy.
Charles Huber then somehow goes back to Bruce's apartment, and sometime throughout the night when they're just hanging out there, Bruce attacks him and stabs him, I mean, just multiple times. At one point, he had him from what is described, I guess, like almost like in a chokehold and was stabbing him over the top. And he actually stabs through Charles Huber into his own leg.
She had ridden her bike to the gym at Northgate and Bruce was there and he had his hood up on his car and he's like, hey, can you give me a hand real quick? And she's like, oh, I'm okay. I'm going to go in here. She's like, oh, just give me a hand real quick. I want you to see if you can help me start my car.
