The Seminole County Sheriff's Office announced Monday that it had cracked a 20-year-old homicide by matching DNA found at the scene of a stabbing near Casselberry.

The Sheriff's Office was notified Dec. 30 that Hedrick's DNA matched DNA found in those five blood samples taken from the crime scene in 1991.

Hedrick reported to the Seminole County Sheriff's Office Thursday to register as a convicted felon, the Sheriff's Office reported. When he did, deputies noted that he had old injuries to fingers on both hands.

Foster was a temporary employee who had worked at the store, MyComp Computer Corp., three days a week for about six weeks.

wonderful news!

He gets by with murder for 16 years. And likely would have gotten by with it even longer. But he got greedy again. Had he paid that sales tax, he likely would have gotten away with the murder.

LOL I love to point out that murder has no statute of limitations. That once you commit murder, you always have to look over your shoulder. And you never know when or how you will get caught.

Former state Corrections Officer David Lee Hedrick will spend the rest of his life in prison after his conviction today on first-degree murder...

His daughter testified last week she remembered Hedrick coming home in the winter of 1991 with both hands wrapped in bloody towels. It was the same day the family drove to a hospital in Clearwater, where Hedrick was admitted for treatment of deep cuts on both hands...

Immediately after the verdict, Circuit Judge John Galluzo sentenced Hedrick to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
