Ryland Headley was convicted this week in the killing of 75-year-old Louisa Dunne. The police used DNA evidence to solve what had been one of Britain’s oldest cold cases.

Louisa Dunne’s rape and murder is thought to be the UK's oldest cold case. Here is a timeline of how the case has evolved over the past 58 years. On 28 June 1967, the 75-year-old was found dead in her front room. She had bruising on her neck indicating she had been strangled with a scarf.

A 92-year-old British man has been convicted of murder and rape on Monday, a verdict that brought an end to a cold case that remained unsolved for 58 years.
