This time of year, my thoughts always turn to Tammy Zywicki. On August 23, 1992, she went missing after her car broke down on Interstate 80. Her body was found nine days later, wrapped in a blanket and dumped along Interstate 44 in Missouri. She had been stabbed eight times.
Her killer has never faced justice.
Over the years, various suspects have been investigated, but the leads never led to resolution.
Now, there is a new possible break in the case.
Here is another story about the lead.
After so many fruitless leads, it is hard to feel optimistic. But I hope this finally brings justice - and answers - to the Zywicki family.
