I'm glad her family can lay her to rest with her true name. Our thoughts go out to her family, the Lady of the Dunes is now known to be 38 year old Ruth Marie Terry. It shows that even after nearly 50 years, cold cases can still be solved, and technology is allowing more and more families to finally know what happened to their missing family members. I hope in time they can find out who her killer was and perhaps if their still alive put them to justice.
Law enforcement officials on Monday identified the victim as Ruth Marie Terry, a Tennessee woman who was 37 at the time of her death. The gruesome and mysterious 1974 case has haunted Cape Cod investigators for decades.
