Police in Florida announced this afternoon that they've finally solved the 1981 murder of Adam Walsh.
Ottis Toole, an accused serial killer, killed the boy 27 years ago, police say.
The 6-year-old's father, John Walsh, became an anti-crime crusader and has hosted the America's Most Wanted program for the last two decades.
"Although Adam's killer never served one day in prison for destroying our son's life and almost ruining ours, nor will he ever because he died in prison serving time for an unrelated murder, we are satisfied that the main suspect in Adam's murder –- Ottis Toole -- has now been positively identified and that this chapter in our lives is now closed," Walsh says in a statement on the AMW website.
and as a sidenote:
I did a profile on Henry Lee Lucas for a serial murder class in grad school, Otis Toole was his lover / serial murdering buddy. I wonder what evidence they have to support this. Serial killers do embellish their murder stats to enhance their notoriety.
