Michael Keith Roberts The victim was located on June 14, 1983 in Spokane, Washington. On April 12, 2006, Lorrie Hegewald, a Spokane County deputy medical investigator, received the original fingerprints taken from the body and re-submitted the prints to the FBI and they came back with a match. The fingerprints had been sent in to the FBI in 1983 before the records were computerized which was like looking for a "needle in a haystack." No match could be found back then. This time there was a match with prints taken from a man arrested for a minor offense in Lakewood, Colorado in 1978. Roberts had left home at the age of 18. He returned home one time, distraught and destitute. By his late teens, it was obvious he suffered from mental illness, most likely schizophrenia. He was 30 years old at the time of his death.
