Indiana 1988 cold case solved — arrest shocks community

Описание: Indiana 1988 cold case solved — arrest shocks community

A frigid December morning in 2011 began with an unusual disturbance on Cedar Street, south of Indianapolis. Six unmarked police cars quietly pulled up in front of a modest single-story brick house where 54-year-old Mark Pierce was living with a relative. Neighbors peered through their curtains as tactical-geared officers spread out across the yard—one taking position at the front door, two others moving around to the back. Inside, Mark was brewing coffee, his daily morning routine since retiring from his job at city hall, trying to maintain a normal life after years of living quietly.

A rapid knock sounded at 6:42 a.m. “Mark Pierce, Indiana State Police. We have a warrant for your arrest in connection with the murder of Laura Pierce, which occurred in 1988 in Bloomington.” One officer later recounted that Mark froze, the coffee mug slipping from his hand, coffee splattering across the floor, but his face remained strangely calm, as if he had been waiting for this moment for over two decades.
