Case solved?

I've always been fascinated by cold cases - crimes that go for years, and sometimes decades, before being solved (if they're ever solved at all; probably the most famous unsolved cold case in American history is that of the "Black Dahlia", the extraordinarily gruesome murder of Elizabeth Short in 1947).

Here's another crime - the abduction and murder of 7-year-old Maria Ridulph - that achieved nationwide notoriety when it occurred in 1957, and which police believe they have now solved - thanks to the discovery of an unused train ticket.
