Police In Washington State Make Arrest In 1987 Murders Of Victoria Couple

The Canadian Press, 18 May, 2018 11:30 AM
    EVERETT, Wash. — Police in Washington state say they have made arrest in the murders of a Victoria-area couple more than 30 years ago.
     
     
    Eighteen-year-old Tanya Van Cuylenborg and her boyfriend, 20-year-old Jay Cook, were found dead near Seattle in November 1987.
     
     
    Police say they have arrested a 55-year-old man.
     
     
    The break in the case comes five weeks after police released composite drawings of a potential suspect created through groundbreaking DNA technology.
     
     
    The images released by the Snohomish County Sheriff's Office showed a Caucasian man with fair hair and green or hazel eyes, traits that investigators said are connected to the DNA of the person they think killed the couple.
     
     
    The high school sweethearts were on their way to Seattle to pick up furnace parts for Cook's father when they disappeared.
     
     
    Their bodies were found in separate locations outside the city days later.
