The Lee Rotatori murder case refers to the tragic events that took place on June 25, 1982. Lee Gunsalus Rotatori, a 32-year-old American woman, was murdered by a single stab wound in her hotel room at the Best Western Frontier Motor Lodge in Council Bluffs, Iowa. The motive behind the murder is believed to be a random act of violence. But was it? The case remained unsolved for many years until advances in DNA analysis led to a breakthrough. Authorities were able to identify Rotatori's murderer through DNA evidence only to learn he had been shot to death weeks after Lee’s murder. And what about her husband that was walking free in spite of a death sentence for a murder he was convicted of?
