DNA Links 'Lady of the Dunes' Murder to Husband Decades Later

The "Lady of the Dunes" was identified in 2021 through DNA as Ruth Marie Terry, who disappeared in 1974.
Terry's husband Guy Muldavin was determined to be responsible for her death, which was caused by blunt force trauma.
Muldavin was a suspect in the deaths of a previous wife and stepdaughter years earlier.
Terry's hands were severed when her body was found in the dunes of Provincetown, Massachusetts.
Investigators used genetic genealogy to identify Terry decades after her murder and link Muldavin to the crime.
