Based on the following passage:
The murder of Carol was in 1983. She was a mother of two, in a decent neighborhood, had a husband who worked. When the kids left for school they were always careful to shut the doors, same as her husband. Two months prior to the murder, Carol had witnessed an intruder in her home but was not quick enough to get her gun before he fled. On the particular day of the murder, Carols son was sick at school and her husband went to pick him up, when arriving home Carol's husband and son witnessed her lying dead on her daughters floor. Her throat was slit, cash was gone and a couple drawers gone through.
To solve this case, I would start with who the intruder was two months ago, is he identifiable? Did anyone witness someone lurking around the neighborhood? I would pull all fingerprints and any evidence in the room. It difficult to think what I would truly have done as I grew up in a world where technology evolved and in 1983, I was not alive to live it and understand the methods they used.
