Michelle Martinko was an average teenager living in the small community of Cedar Rapids, Iowa. But on Dec 19th 1979, her life was tragically ended by a unknown attacker. For the next 39 years, Michelle's case would be stalled till advancements in forensic technology are made.
Thank you to all the dedicated investigators who never gave up.
