Investigators in Wisconsin are working to determine whether 46-year-old Edward Lanphear, accused last week of kidnapping and sexually assaulting two men, is connected to the murder of a female college student in April.
According to Dean Berres, an investigator with the Wood County sheriff’s department, inquiries into a link between the two crimes began with a small, but ominous piece of evidence.
“We don’t have the indication that this case is linked to the homicide other than the small newspaper clipping we found at the suspect’s residence,” Berres told ABC News.
