Today's arrest is just the first step in holding Ed Holly accountable for the murder of Megan McDonald.
The only thing that we as law enforcement can do to honor Megan is to bring this case to a successful conclusion.
This has been the focus of the New York State Police for the last 20 years.
This was a very complex investigation for us.

So the Major touched on the foresight of those investigators 20 years ago, collecting all kinds of physical evidence at the crime scenes.
Throughout the years, there's been tremendous advances in DNA and technology.
As those progressions in DNA technology have come about, we've tried to leverage those things and resubmit evidence for further DNA analysis, and that's what we've done in this case.
So what I will say, because this is a pending criminal matter, is that Ed Holly's DNA was linked to a crime scene.

Maybe didn't show up for work or maybe cleaned out a vehicle or tried to sell an ATV. That's the type of information today that may help us solve this case.
