Oberholtzer
Schnee
Within a year of the Jan. 6, 1982 murders of Barbara Bobbie Jo Oberholtzer (nee: Burns), a 29-year-old Racine native who had moved to Colorado with her husband, and Annette Schnee, a popular 21-year-old working at a local hotel, seemingly every suspect had been exonerated and the new evidence wasnât coming forward.
The first-ever DNA-based conviction wouldnât come along for another eight years, and the suspected killerâs DNA (identified within the past week as Alan Lee Phillips) wouldnât even be put into CODIS â the FBI s Combined DNA Index System containing forensic profiles of nearly 20 million people â until the late 1990s or early 2000s.
