The nation's top forensic experts have taken an interest in the unsolved murder of Shaun Eileen Ritterson.

“We're actively involved with the FBI National Laboratory,” said Matt Weintraub, Bucks County's chief of prosecution. “They're testing some material for us and we're hopeful that forensics are going to push this case in a direction that will lead it to a conclusion.”

Ritterson, 20, of Bristol, was found dead on the side of a Buckingham hillside on June 12, 1977. She had been gutted like a deer, investigators said, possibly while she was still alive.
The case was nearly forgotten until last year, when Calkins Media reporters began asking questions about Ritterson's slaying, prompting the DA's office to reopen the investigation and empanel a countywide task force dedicated to solving it.
