0:00.0 | Coming up, it's been eight years. This family's still looking for justice, and there's a killer out there. |
0:06.9 | For Vault Studios, I'm Will Johnson. And I'm Reid Redmond. You're listening to The Daily Crime. It's been 10 years since an 83-year-old grandmother was murdered in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. |
0:29.3 | Investigators still don't know who's responsible. |
0:32.0 | For us and for the families, the case never goes away. |
0:34.7 | Sometimes people think that we forget about these unsoft cases, |
0:42.1 | and that couldn't be further from the truth. In Tennessee, an arrest in a more than decade-old cold case, police have charged the husband of a woman found dead in 2011 with first-degree murder. |
0:48.4 | They lost their mother 11 years ago, and now it looks like they could be losing their dad, |
0:52.8 | and this is not really a happy day. |
0:58.0 | This past spring marked 10 years since the death of an 83-year-old woman from Lancaster, Pennsylvania. |

When the incident occurred, it came as a shock to not just the family, but the police as well, given the lifestyle that she was living prior to the incident that occurred 10 years ago. |
1:41.6 | So Irma Kaler was a mother of two and a grandmother to 10 grandchildren. |
1:46.5 | And her obituary talks about how she enjoyed spending time with children in the neighborhood and with her dog, a little Jack Russell Terrier. |
1:53.4 | She liked watching the Phillies. And again, like we heard from that, she was just your typical 83-year-old retiree. |
1:59.6 | All right. So take us back to May of 2012. |
2:01.8 | What happened? |
2:02.7 | It's a horrific crime scene. |
2:04.2 | A neighbor went into Irma Kailer's apartment and found her lying on the kitchen floor |
