Philadelphia detectives used new technology to run a fingerprint found on a wine glass through the department's Automated Fingerprint Identification System, said Barry Moskovitz, of the Records and Identification Unit, recently. The development led to charges against William Basemore, 37, an inmate already on death row for the 1986 murder of a security guard. Dermaine Smith, 30, found the body of her uncle Richard Donahue and said her family has no knowledge of Basemore. At the time, detectives said they suspected robbery had been the motive for Donahue's violent murder. Donahue had been stabbed 41 times. |
