Just months after 80-year-old Donna Casasanta found out that her son, Harold Dean Clouse – who she calls Junior and who was last heard from in 1980 – had been identified as a cold case murder victim, her daughter came over and asked her to sit down on what would have been his 63rd birthday.
“I go, ‘No, Debbie, don’t do this to me,” Ms Casasanta tells The Independent. “Because when they came to tell me about Junior being found, I just sort of fell to pieces ... “So I says, “Please, Debbie, I can’t. No bad news, honey. I just can’t. No more. No more.’”
