## Resource

After 22 years, a cold case from April 2003 finally cracked: Jesse Lockley Junior was arrested for strangling Arlene Hall, whose body was found in Dayton’s basement. DNA evidence discovered in December 2025 linked him to the crime, reigniting hope for justice after decades of silence. The family endured unimaginable pain, but police say this breakthrough brings closure—and praise goes to the dedicated homicide and cold case teams who never gave up. Lockley now faces charges, proving that truth and accountability can still emerge—even after twenty-two long years.
