Fox News
A cold case investigation in Utah has been closed after DNA testing identified skeletal remains discovered 42 years ago as those of a missing woman whose family suspected had been murdered by her late husband.
"No matter how much time passes, the detectives of the Salt Lake City Police Department will never let up in their quest to solve every case and to get answers for loved ones," Police Chief Mike Brown said in a statement. Matott’s husband, Warren Matott, reported her missing on July 18, 1979. He claimed that she was last seen at a bar in Salt Lake City eight days earlier, investigators said. Detectives attempted to follow up with Matott at the time but couldn’t reach him.More Related News
