OUTCOME: Nearly 40 years after his crimes, Gary Glowacz pleaded guilty to Second-Degree Murder and Armed Burglary with Assault or Battery in the 1987 killing of 20-year-old Melissa “Missy” Ellison.

The case was investigated by @JSOPIO and prosecuted by Assistant State Attorney Joel Cooper. The cold case was solved in part by information and attention given to the case by @projectcoldcase and @FCCrimeStop.
