DNA evidence has helped to identify a man who died decades ago as a new suspect in the 1991 killing of four teenage girls, after authorities linked him to multiple killings in other states, police said Friday.
In a statement, police said they had made a “significant breakthrough” and that DNA tests have led investigators to Robert Eugene Brashers. The announcement came amid renewed attention on the case with the release last month of “The Yogurt Shop Murders,” an HBO documentary series.
