Rita Curran was 24 years old when she was brutally beaten, sexually assaulted and strangled inside her Vermont apartment in July 1971.
Tuesday, police identified the killer as William DeRoos, who lived in the same apartment building. He was 31 years old at the time.
The man was questioned by police the day Curran’s body was found in 1971, but they said he convinced his then-wife to provide an alibi. “Then we see the propensity of violence, unprovoked violence,” Trieb continued. “Given all this information, our detective bureau, myself, the chief, we’re all confident that William DeRoos was responsible for the aggravated murder of Rita Curran.”
