Episode 57 Julie Fuller
Julie Fuller had lived in Arlington, Texas for just three weeks when she was abducted, raped and murdered at the end of June, 1983. The 11 year old native of the UK was enamored of America – but her shattered family moved back to England after her death, without their beloved Julie. Not a single witness to Julie’s abduction could assist the police investigation, and her body bore very few clues as to what had happened to her. Multiple child predators were looked at over the years, and while they were all abhorrent predators, none of them killed Julie. Not until forensic genealogy came along did investigators in Fort Worth finally learn the name of the man who was responsible for ending Julie’s life. We don’t have as many answers as we would like in this case – but what we do know about James Francis McNichols Jr. is chilling.
