Murder of Kelly Ann Tinyes

The murder of Kelly Ann Tinyes /TIN-uhs/ occurred on March 3, 1989. Tinyes was a thirteen-year-old Valley Stream, New York resident who was strangled, stabbed, and mutilated. Her body was discovered in the basement of her neighbor, twenty-one-year-old bodybuilder Robert Golub, who was charged with and convicted of her murder. Golub was convicted based on DNA evidence that showed that he matched the genetic markers found in a blood sample discovered on evidence. The trial was the first case in New York state to have a case won by DNA forensic evidence.

The case was re-opened on March 3, 2009, to investigate the possibility of an accomplice. Provided by Wikipedia
