50-year-old Colorado cold case solved after DNA technology identifies woman's killer

For nearly 50 years, no one knew what happened to Teree Becker.

She was last seen Dec. 4, 1975, hitchhiking to see her boyfriend in Brighton, Colorado. Two days later, her body was found dumped in a field outside Denver.

Two passing motorcyclists discovered Becker in the area of 100th Avenue and Lowell Boulevard in Westminster, about 10 miles north of Denver, along with her clothes and personal items.
