Authorities in California's Bay Area are closer to solving a 1973 cold case killing of a 21-year-old woman after genetic genealogy led investigators to an arrest. Santa Clara County Sheriff arrested 74-year-old John Arthur Getreu.
Perlov was last seen at her job in Palo Alto on the afternoon of Feb. 13, 1973. Her orange 1972 Chevrolet Nova was discovered later that day, parked at the gate of an old quarry in Los Altos Hills.
Getreu served prison time in Germany for raping and killing a 16-year-old girl in 1964 while his father, a sergeant for the U.S. Army, was stationed there. The victim was the daughter of an Army chaplain, according to the station.
Authorities submitted an unknown male DNA profile to Parabon NanoLabs, in Reston, Virginia. The service "produces a descriptive profile of the source of the human DNA sample," according to the company's website. You can't hide!
