Kathy Halle
In March 1979, 19-year-old Kathy Halle went missing while on her way to pick up her sister from a shopping center in North Aurora.
Initially the case was treated as a missing person’s investigation. But three weeks later, Halle’s body was discovered in the Fox River, about 40 miles west of Chicago.
Detective Ryan Peat of the North Aurora Police Department explained during a recent news conference that despite authorities’ early efforts, they couldn’t gather enough evidence to identify a suspect. And the case went cold.
