Cold Cases Solved: Navy Diver Linked to Rapes
Tap title to read story
A decades-long investigation linked deceased Navy diver Sean Patrick McNulty to six home invasion and rape cases across four states. Cold cases from the 1980s and 90s were solved using DNA evidence from rape kits, which matched McNulty's DNA obtained from a previous investigation. McNulty, who died by suicide in 1997, was identified through genealogical research and DNA comparison. While one victim has been contacted, authorities are working to notify others and continue investigating potential additional crimes.
