A Roseville man has been indicted and charged in a cold case murder that happened nearly 25 years ago. The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation publicized on Friday that 53-year-old Rodney E. Jackson was indicted by a grand jury out of McGinn County Tennessee on one count of first-degree murder on January 18th. Jackson was arrested by the Illinois State Police and extradited back to Tennessee, where he has been booked into the McGinn County Jail. Special agents in Tennessee joined McGinn County deputies in November 1996 to investigate a female body found on the ramp of an interstate.
