Summary

On January 7th 1978 a young girl was found brutally raped and murdered on the side of the road. And, though it would take 41 years, DNA would help to solve the case of the murder of Shelley Connolly.  Shop NEW Merch now!  https://www.bonfire.com/store/morningcupofmurder/ Become a supporter of this podcast on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/morningcupofmurder Follow Morning Cup of Murder on Twitter: https://twitter.com/cupofmurder @cupofmurder Follow MCOM on Instagram: @morningcupofmurder Have a Murder or strange local true crime story you want to share, or you just want to say hi?
