Dallas District Attorney John Creuzot's office on Friday arrested and charged a man for the 1984 killing of 21-year-old Mary Jane Thompson.
His arrest came almost 38 years to the day Thompson's body was discovered behind a warehouse on Feb. 13, 1984, after a DNA test linked him to the crime.
"This case is yet another example of the incredible collaborative effort between the Dallas Police Department, the FBI, and the District Attorney’s [Sexual Assault Kit Initiative] Cold Case team. Working together, we continue to solve the most difficult cold cases that Dallas has ever seen," Dallas County Assistant District Attorney and SAKI Chief Leighton D’Antoni said in a Friday statement.
