Boone County could be closer to solving the case of a missing woman

Early Thursday morning the Boone County sheriff's department took 36-year-old Aaron Null into custody from his home in Rockford.

He's charged with 1st degree murder.

"It's different than the usual case."

That's because police still have not found the body of Brynn Null.

In 2002 when she went missing, she was just 25 years old.

"Most cases you have a body, but you there are cases that have been prosecuted thought the U.S. without a body."

I just added her to Charley the other day, when I found the article about the husband being charged with murder. I hadn't even heard of her case before.

bumping up...

missing 7 years now.

BELVIDERE (WREX) - An eight-year nightmare is finally over for the family of Brynn Null. The 25-year-old vanished in November 2002. Tonight a jury convicted her husband, Aaron Null, of murder.

Jurors got the case just before 6 pm. Six men and six women had seven days of evidence to consider. In the end, it took them less than three hours to decide Aaron killed Brynn in their Capron bedroom.
.........................
Hopeful that prosecutors' arguments got through to the jury. The state painted Aaron Null as a violent man with a history of domestic violence against Brynn. Family testified in court they hid Brynn after fights with Aaron.

Investigators also told the jury blood spatter found on the couple's bedroom wall matched Brynn's. So did a large blood stain, 18 inches by 22 inches, found on their mattress.
