SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (AP) – Massachusetts prosecutors have released composite images of a suspect in the unsolved slaying of a middle school teacher’s aide nearly a quarter of a century ago.
Hampden District Attorney Anthony Gulluni hopes the images released Wednesday will help solve the April 1992 homicide of 24-year-old Lisa Ziegert, of Agawam.
The images were produced with technology unavailable in 1992 that uses DNA to predict physical appearance.
One image depicts a white male, with some freckling, brown or black hair, and hazel or brown eyes, at age 25. The other image depicts the same man aged 25 years.
Ziegert was working her night job at a gift shop when she disappeared. Her body was found four days later in a wooded area about four miles away. She had been raped and stabbed.
