Two decades after his wife's killing, authorities named late Ohio business owner Edward Geddes as the person responsible for the murder of Lina Reyes-Geddes, who was found dead along an interstate highway near Maidenwater Spring, Utah.
Utah police discovered Reyes-Geddes' body inside a sleeping bag bound by duct tape and rope, wrapped in a carpet and covered with plastic in April of 1998, although they were not able to identify her for years after she was killed.
In 2018, detectives announced a breakthrough in the case — which had been closed, reopened, and taken on by the agents at the State Bureau of Investigation in Utah after a county sheriff's office could not solve it — when a photo released by Utah state investigators matched one recently added to an updated missing persons file in Youngstown, Ohio.
