34-year-old cold case: suspect Kenneth Perry indicted for stabbing deaths of siblings John and Pamela Sumpter in DeKalb County, Georgia, using DNA from pre-1999 rape kit evidence.

34 years after a brother and sister, John and Pamela Sumpter, were stabbed to death in DeKalb County, Georgia, a suspect, Kenneth Perry, has been indicted for their murders. DNA collected in a rape kit used to test pre-1999 rape kit evidence linked Perry to the cold case. The brother and sister were attacked in their Stone Mountain apartment on July 15, 1990, with Pamela Sumpter surviving long enough to describe their attacker, who she believed was a friend of her brother's from Detroit.
