In the early hours of February 4, 1984, 25-year-old Terri Brooks, a night manager at a Roy Rogers restaurant in Falls Township, Pennsylvania, was found brutally murdered at her workplace. The crime scene suggested a robbery gone wrong, with signs of forced entry and a safe tampered with. However, the true motive remained elusive, and the case went cold for over a decade.
Terri Brooks' case remained unsolved for 15 years, but thanks to advancements in DNA technology and persistent investigative efforts, justice was finally served.
