Theresa Fusco Murder Case Solved After 41 Years
Investigators have solved the murder of 16-year-old Theresa Fusco, who was found dead near a Lynbrook roller rink in 1984.
Nassau County authorities announced that a new DNA match from a discarded smoothie cup led them to the real killer, Richard Bilodeau, 63, of Center Moriches.
Bilodeau was arraigned on two charges of murder in the second degree, including intentional murder and murder committed during the course of rape, and pleaded not guilty.
Notably, three men previously convicted of the crime spent nearly two decades in prison before being cleared by DNA evidence in 2003.
No comment from the defendant or his representatives was available.
