DNA testing helps solve 62-year-old cold case

Spokane Police say DNA helped lead them to the man who killed 9-year-old Candy Rogers in 1959. The man who killed 9-year-old Candy Rogers in 1959 will not face a jury, nor face jail time. It took three generations of law enforcement personnel to solve the case, but Spokane Police Sergeant Zac Storment was finally able to identify the young girl’s killer. “I keep saying, it’s the Mount Everest of our cold cases… the one we could never seem to overcome. At the same time, nobody ever forgot,” Storment said. Rogers was selling Camp Fire mints when she disappeared from her front yard West Central more than than 60 years ago. For two weeks after her disappearance, police searched for her, but to no avail. The Marine Corps, the Boy Scouts, US Postal Workers, and many others helped in the search. A helicopter from Fairchild Air Force Base was involved but devastatingly crashed, killing three airmen. On the sixteenth day of the search, Rogers’ body was found. Evidence from the scene showed Rogers was raped and strangled with a strip of her own clothing. The evidence was preserved for decades and would ultimately be what linked the crime to the killer.
