The righteous boom of justice, although slow and painfully-awaited, has finally been lowered in Buffalo, New York.

According to the Associated Press, a woman has been charged with murdering a 92-year-old World War I vet while burglarizing his home more than thirty years ago.

Erie County prosecutors announced Wednesday that fingerprints and DNA evidence linked Saundra Adams to the slaying of Edmund Schreiber, who was found strangled with his own neckties in June 1983.

Adams was 17 at the time of the killing. Prosecutors say an unknown accomplice was also involved.

Adams, who’s now 50, was arrested Tuesday. She has pleaded not guilty and is in jail pending a bail hearing.

Schreiber had been awarded the Purple Heart.
