Discovery of New Victim Links to Fox Hollow Farm Serial Killer

Decades after Indiana serial killer Herb Baumeister's crimes, authorities have identified his 10th known victim, Daniel Thomas Halloran, through investigative genetic genealogy. Halloran had never been reported missing or previously linked to the Fox Hollow Farm case, underscoring the ongoing challenges in identifying Baumeister's victims from thousands of recovered remains. Meanwhile, new investigative work is shedding light on other historic serial killer cases, such as Houston's Dean Corll, whose 1970s killing spree went largely uninvestigated at the time due to police misclassifying the missing boys as runaways. Efforts to revisit and document such cases continue, including upcoming documentaries and books that aim to bring attention to overlooked victims and the circumstances that allowed these killers to remain hidden for years. These developments highlight both advances in forensic science and the persistent need for awareness and accountability in investigating missing persons cases.
