Lengthy new article, mlive.com:
Murder of 7-year-old remains unsolved after 80 years
Murder of 7-year-old remains unsolved after 80 years
the rest at link aboveEighty years ago, someone got away with murder in Ypsilanti.
Richard Streicher Jr., a 7-year-old boy, went out sledding on a late winter evening never to return. He was found days later underneath a footbridge over the Huron River with 14 stab wounds. Officials initially thought it might be the work of a "sex maniac" or some other local "degenerate."
Despite a Michigan-wide murder probe in the days, weeks and months that followed, a motive was never determined, the weapon never found, the case never solved.
