Wisconsin's 1959 Child Cold Case Solved After 65 Years with DNA

A 65-year-old cold case involving the death of a 7-year-old boy, Markku Jutila, has been solved through DNA identification. The boy's remains were found in Mequon, Wisconsin, in 1959, but charges against his adoptive parents were dropped due to lack of evidence. Recent DNA analysis confirmed the identity of the remains, revealing the boy suffered significant neglect. His adoptive parents, who confessed to disposing of his body, have since died, and no charges will be filed. A funeral will be held for the boy, originally named Chester Alfred Breiney.
