Attribution is not the same thing as proving every case.
The Boston Strangler Murders
A series of women were murdered in the Boston area during the early 1960s. Albert DeSalvo confessed to the crimes, but he was never tried for the murders.
DNA Evidence
Decades later, DNA evidence linked DeSalvo to the murder of Mary Sullivan, strengthening his connection to at least one Strangler case.
What Remains Unresolved
The historical attribution of every Boston Strangler murder to DeSalvo remains more complicated than a single confession narrative. Jaded Evidence will distinguish the confirmed DNA link from broader historical attribution.
